Storage needs evolve constantly. Shouldn't your tape library do the same? The Sun StorageTek L700e tape library is all about freedom - freedom to grow, to adapt, to manage change as new business challenges arise. With its scalable capacity, multiple configuration options, proven robotics, and powerful software, this is one storage solution that embraces change - so you can, too.
Exceeding enterprise expectations
The L700e delivers the performance needed in today's 24 x 7 environments using ndustry leading robotic performance - 450 cartridge exchanges per hour - to keep pace with multiple host applications. The L700e tape library exceeds expectations for throughput and data access across the enterprise. It supports the highly efficient T10000, high-performance T9840, and high-capacity
T9940 tape drives for high transaction-rate applications. The StorageTek Any Cartridge Any Slot(tm) technology also makes it easy to-integrate multiple other tape drive types - including Super DLT (SDLT) and Linear Tape Open (LTO) Ultrium - and tune the system to your application mix. You can configure this library to balance capacity and performance, and customize the way you use
each library module's 13 units of rack space.
With advanced features that include native 2-gigabit Fibre Channel connectivity, a Web-based monitoring interface, mixed-media support, and high availability options, the ultrareliable L700e tape library will delight data users and protect data across the enterprise. When you need to grow, two L700e tape libraries are connected together, expanding capacity beyond the 678-cartridge slots to a robust 1344 cartridge slots - nearly doubling overall capacity. The revolutionary L700e tape library architecture sets the standard with advanced performance, unprecedented flexibility, simplicity of management, and investment protection. As a result, the L700e architecture gives you the ability to collect, move, store, share, and protect your information and easily manage it anywhere, anytime.
Highlights
The StorageTek Any Cartridge Any Slot(tm) technology allows the L700e tape library to handle multiple tape drive technologies, including the new enterprise StorageTek T10000, fast-access T9840, and high-capacity T9940 families of tape drives, as well as the midrange DLT, SDLT, and LTO tape drives. Multiple cartridge types are accommodated, so you never have to change tape slots, software, or robotics.
The StorageTek L700e tape library lets all your applications read and write simultaneously, and multiple applications can share its large data pool thanks to the StorageTek 4D Robotics(tm) technology and digital vision system.
Remote management is simplified with the StorageTek Library Manager software or StorageTek ACSLS Manager(tm) software. Manual intervention is eliminated through self-balancing between tape drives and cartridge activity.
A native 2-gigabit Fibre Channel optical interface, combined with the StorageTek T10000, T9840, and T9940 tape drives, provide a leading-edge, all-Fibre Channel solution with dynamic worldwide naming capability.
