Product Description
adic

The Scalar 100 is a mid-range library that offers a powerful combination of industry-leading density, trouble-free scalability, and advanced storage networking technology.

This capacity-packed system is the first tape library to deliver a storage density of 1TB per rack unit. In fact, a standard rack cabinet can hold three Scalar 100s, giving you up to 43TBs of capacity in a very compact space.

Highly scalable, the Scalar 100 can grow from 15 to 96 tapes and from 1 to 8 drives. Adding capacity is easy. Upgrades take less than 10 minutes and don’t require changing your rack system or adding external elevators or pass-through ports.

The Scalar 100 also gives you enterprise-class storage features, including integrated SAN connectivity and management services, redundant power, remote management, and a bulk-load mailbox that can handle 2TBs at a time.

The Scalar 100 supports LTO, SDLT/DLT, or AIT technology.

A standard rack cabinet holds up to three Scalar 100's,providing nearly 43TB of storage capacity!

Features and Benefits

  • Industry-leading density: stores up to 28.8TB in only 14 rack units
  • Economical scalability: scales from 1 to 8 drives and from 15 to 96 cartridges—all within the same unit
  • Space-efficient: compact size maximizes limited server room real estate
  • Easy growth: expansion within minutes—and without pass-through ports
  • Proven connectivity: storage network interoperability means seamless integration into new or existing SANs
  • Intelligent SAN support: integrated storage networking support—including serverless backup, data path conditioning, and built-in firewall—for easier installation and operation, higher performance and reliability
  • Reliability: built-in diagnostics, redundant power supplies, and a 1,000,000 cartridge-change rating
  • Responsive service: one-year on-site service provided by ADIC technical Assistance Center (ATAC) with 24-hour, worldwide service and support

Notes:

1 Without affecting library operation. Bus integrity must be sustained.

2 Power consumption is obtained using RMS values for voltage and current. Indicated Agency Label value for maximum volt-Amperes of 240V*3.5A (840W) should be used to determine non-cooling system requirements. Drive sled power consumption is taken while writing to a tape.
