StorageWorks TL822 DLT Automated Tape Library
The TL822 DIGITAL Linear Tape (DLT) library providing up to 10.56 Terabytes of storage for unattended backup
operations, archiving, hierarchical storage management, large-scale data storage, and video-on-demand applications.
With significantly greater storage capacity than the IBM 3480-compatible ATL subsystems, in a smaller footprint, the
TL822 provides users with the ability to automate large-scale backup and archiving and hierarchical storage management
operations at a fraction of the cost of other technologies.
The performance and capacity of the TL822 subsystem are suited to the implementation of large-scale archival,
hierarchical storage management and near-line storage. The TL822 uses three high performance TZ88 tape drives for
unsurpassed data integrity, and high capacity (up to 40 Gbytes compressed per cartridge)
The TL822 is a high capacity, 264-cartridge automated tape library (ATL) designed to provide high capacity storage and
robotic access for Digital's DLT series of tape drives. Housed in a 79-inch (200 cm) tall cabinet, each 28-inch (72 cm) wide
tower contains up to 264 DLT tape cartridges and three differential SCSI-2 DLT drives. A single TL822 can provide 5.28
Terabytes of storage capacity, or approximately 10.56 Terabytes using the TZ88 drive’s hardware data compression. Up to
five TL822 towers can be connected together with their robots supported by one differential SCSI-2 multi-unit controller as
a single logical unit.
