ADIC Scalar 100


Scalar 100
Rack-optimized, mid-range library with enterprise-class features.
 
Scalar 100

 

 

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 2TB1 per rack unit. In fact, a standard rack cabinet can hold three Scalar 100s, giving you over 86TBs 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's storage networking options enable iSCSI or Fibre Channel (FC) connectivity for today's backup consolidation needs. An FC option provides intelligent features to improve SAN backup performance and reliability. An iSCSI option provides an easy-to-implement connectivity choice that lets servers share a single library over standard ethernet.

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

Data Sheet

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
  • Choice of easy-to-implement iSCSI or full FC connectivity option
  • Easy growth: expansion within minutes—and without pass-through ports
  • Proven connectivity: storage network interoperability means seamless integration into new or existing SANs
  • Reliability: built-in diagnostics, redundant power supplies, and a 1,000,000 cartridge-change rating

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.
