Overview

In comparison to stand-alone tape drives, the ATL ValueLoader™ offers increased capacity and random access to several cartridges without human intervention – the number one cause of data loss. The ValueLoader is an unparalleled value for DLTtape™ automation and provides all of these benefits at a price comparable to some stand-alone tape drives.

 Benefits
  • Up to 1.6TB compressed capacity
  • Up to 30MB per second compressed performance
  • Reliable — Tape drive and automation are truly integrated to minimize the number of parts and increase reliability
  • Ease of use — Automated cartridge management simplifies user intervention for the import and export of data cartridges
  • Eight cartridges rotate in a carousel around the center-mounted tape drive and insert into the drive individually
  • Rack optimized for slim spaces — Provides best-of-breed data density when implemented in rack-optimized installations
  • Tabletop ready for desktop configurations
  • Total Value Delivery — Reduces IT overhead at a price that is comparable to some stand-alone tape drives
