| |
| The
L40 provides affordable, high-performance, high-capacity
data management for demanding distributed environments.
Combining proven technology, reliable, high-speed
robotics and an entry-level price, plus the power
to grow without bounds with an easy upgrade path
from the L20 to the L80 make the L40 tape library
the answer for growing organizations automated backup
and recovery needs.
- Mixed Operating System Support.
Whether your environment is based in Microsoft
Windows NT®, Novell®, Linux® or UNIX®, you can
take full advantage of the L40's high-performance
storage capabilities.
- Ease of Upgrade.
An innovative upgrade path allows you to exchange
your L40 system for a new, larger capacity library
in the L20/L40/L80 series. Your initial drive
investment can be carried along with each upgrade.
The upgrade is as simple as the initial installation.
The new unit requires no additional training.
And the trade-in plan saves you money.
- Storage Leadership. With 30
years of industry experience and 100 petabytes
of data stored on StorageTek systems worldwide,
StorageTek is the global leader in information
management and storage.
- Ease of Use. The plug-and-play
solution is easy to install and use saving deployment
time for your IT staff.
- Best-in-Class Reliability. The
L40 tape library is more reliable than the competition,
enabling the best access to data.
- Volumetric Efficiency. You can
store more data in less physical rack space than
competing systems, which saves you space and money.
- Investment Protection. Support
for multiple tape technologies protects your investment
from rapid technology changes.
The L40 single-unit design takes up less physical
space than competing rack-and-stack solutions. And
its plug-and-play capabilities enable easy installation
and management right out of the box.
Capacities as high as 4 TB and software tools that
enable offloading administration into a single,
centralized location provide sophisticated storage
and management solutions. This robust tape automation
system from the worldwide storage leader gives Microsoft
Windows NT, Novell, Linux, and UNIX environments
the best total cost of ownership and scalability
to meet future growth requirements. |
