Product Overview:
Based on the Sony AIT family of 8mm tape units, which offer up to 260GB at 31.2MB/sec per drive, the Spectra 10000 series offers over up to 10.4 Terabytes of storage in a compact table-top or rack mountable unit.
With scalability of up to four drives and forty cartridges, the BullFrog family of tape library solutions deliver tremendous capacity (more than 10 terabytes with AIT-3 drives) in a compact, easy-to-use device. Additional features like an optional Fibre Channel interface and split-mode operation -- which allows a single tape libary to function as two separate libraries -- makes the BullFrog a powerful and flexible option for data centers of all sizes.
The Spectra 10000 library delivers exceptional capacity and throughput - ideal
for fast, frequent backups of large networks, servers, VLDBs, and data warehouses.
Spectra 10000 Library Features
Bullfrog® architecture
The Spectra 10000 uses BullFrog architecture
developed by Spectra Logic. This architecture allows
the library to be configured with 20 or 40 cartridges
and up to four tape drives. It supports SCSI-2 (Single-ended, HVD and LVD)
and Fibre Channel interfaces, making the Spectra 10000 a reliable and
adaptable tape storage library for your growing data center.
Scalability and Sharability
The library can be upgraded in the field
by adding drives or slots to meet future growth
requirements. Users can split a single Spectra
10000 library into two “logical”
libraries, a feature that allows sharing of
storage resources between different servers,
operating systems and even software
applications.
Graphical User Interface
The Spectra 10000 library features an award-win-ning LCD touchscreen graphical user interface that
provides access to status information, configuration
parameters and diagnostics.
Spectra Logic provides data protection for customers
worldwide with library products ranging in capacity
from hundreds of gigabytes to hundreds of terabytes.
