IBM tape libraries?
Relying on IBM tape drives and libraries instead of disk storage for long-term data retention makes it possible to dramatically reduce the cost of storing growing amounts of data. IBM offers a full range of tape libraries and autoloaders featuring high performance and capacity for entry, midrange and enterprise system environments.
IBM TS3100 Tape Library
IBM TS3100 Tape Library
Is well-suited for handling backup, save, restore and archival data-storage needs for small to midsize environments. With up to two tape drives and a 24-tape cartridge capacity, the TS3100 is designed to leverage Linear Tape-Open (LTO) technology to help cost-effectively handle growing storage requirements.
What it can do for your business
The IBM® TS3100 tape library and its storage management applications are designed to exceed your capacity, performance, data protection, reliability, affordability and application requirements. The TS3100 is designed as a functionally rich, entry-level tape-storage solution incorporating LTO tape technology. The TS3100 is an excellent solution for large-capacity or high-performance tape backup with or without random access, as well as an excellent tape automation option for IBM Power Systems™ and other open systems.
