With its capacity-on-demand scalability, built-in storage network support, and high-availability architecture, the Scalar 10K brings the efficiencies of consolidation to your backup.
The Scalar 10K’s unique capacity-on-demand scalability lets you scale your storage capacity more easily and quickly than you can with any other library. Capacity-on-demand systems ship with extra capacity that you can activate, in 100-tape increments, using a software key. You pay only for the capacity you use.
For high-capacity or mixed-media needs, the Scalar 10K offers traditional library configurations. These maximum capacity models have up to 15,885 tape slots and allow you to combine LTO, SDLT, and AIT technology in the same chassis.
The Scalar 10K is the first library to offer integrated storage network support, with certified interoperability that means seamless operation in new or existing SANs. The system supports multiple protocols and heterogeneous fabrics at the same time. Integrated SAN management services, such as serverless backup and data-path conditioning, provide better backup in storage networks.
The Scalar 10K’s high-availability architecture, which includes true 2N power and dual data paths, is designed to meet the reliability demands of data consolidation. Features to ensure maximum system uptime include auto-calibration, self-configuration, and magazine-based loading of up to 7.9TB (native) at once.

With capacity-on-demand scalability, you add capacity as your data grows, paying only for the storage you actually use.
Scalar 10K capacity-on-demand libraries come with extra capacity that you can activate in increments of 100 tape slots using software authorization keys. When most of the capacity of an installed unit has been activated, ADIC delivers additional capacity upgrades at no charge.
Capacity-on-demand libraries provide seamless pay-as-you-grow scalability, from 700 to nearly 5000 tape cartridges and from 1 to 168 drives, without any internal barriers or pass-through ports.
