StorageWorks TL812 DLT Automated Tape Library

The TL812 is a mid-range automated tape library based on DLT technology. With a capacity of 48 cartridges for data

storage and 4 DIGITAL Linear Tape (DLT) TZ88 drives, the TL812 library offers a range of data storage capacity from

0.96 to 1.92 Terabytes. This storage library includes robotic hardware and firmware necessary to store and move up to 52

DLT cartridges, 4 of which are contained in a built-in four-cartridge Load Port (Import/Export).

The TL812 provides a faster access automated tape library ideal for data-center applications for DIGITAL systems,

platforms, clusters, and networks. The unsurpassed speed, capacity, and reliability of DLT technology (ANSI standard),

integrated with highly reliable proven robotics design, provide a high capacity, high performance, quality product for

departmental storage needs.

Combined with Digital's Storage Management software application solutions, or third party applications, the TL812 tape

library makes backup, archive, and Hierarchical Storage Management operations easy, quick, reliable, and cost effective.

Features

Extends the benefits of automated storage management

to department and client/server applications presently

enjoyed by larger enterprisewide data-centers.

Integrates automated backup and archiving, and

hierarchical storage management to department

operations.

Protects against data loss by providing accurate, secure,

auditable archiving and backup of information.

Provides near-on-line storage in huge capacities but with

a small footprint for data-center, network, and server

applications.

Boosts productivity and lowers costs for data-center

management and operations through automated access to

data.

Provides cost effective and reliable storage for

Hierarchical Storage Manager applications.

With appropriate application support, provides built-in

Automatic Drive Cleaning feature that allows high

availability of drives without operator intervention.

Each library comes configured for four SCSI-2 buses.

Internal cabling modifications can be made on site to

support systems with less than four SCSI-2 controllers.
