Tape library dataservers for mid-sized storage needs

The Magstar™ MP (Multi Purpose) 3575 family of tape libraries provide unattended storage for the mid-range systems and network servers. Magstar MP 3575s  have been enhanced with the new multi-path architecture, providing:

  • Extraordinary multi-host sharing of homogeneous or heterogeneous systems in user defined, logical libraries.
  • Magstar MP model C drives (standard on all Magstar MP 3575 libraries) provide three times the data transfer rate of its predecessor  with a 7MB/sec sustained native and 15MB/sec with maximum compression!
  • Near on-line data access of up to 6.8TB (3:1 comp.)
  • Attach capability to the AS/400 and RS/6000.
  • Native Support drivers for HP™, SUN™,  Windows NT™, and Windows 2000™.
  • Robot with a dual-gripper.
  • A bar code reader is standard.
  • Support for up to three user defined logical libraries available.
  • Two to six drives.

Five models, two with expansion capabilities.

Backup times improved by 50% across a wide industry-base. 

Wide market acceptance, field-proven reliability, and customer satisfaction make the Magstar MP 3575 Tape Library Dataserver the ideal solution for mid-range systems.

 3575 MP L-32
3575 MP L-32: 324 slots for cartridge storage giving it native storage capability of 2.2TB and up to 6.8TB in compressed mode of near-on-line data access. Four additional drives can be installed in this model (Magstar MP model B or model C). Model 3575 MP L-32 can be configured as 1, 2 or 3 user-defined logical libraries.

 

Magstar™ MP 3575 L-06 is the entry model of the Magstar MP 3575 family of automated tape libraries. Model L-06 offers all the features and power of the Magstar MP system sized for mid-range systems. Magstar MP L-06 offers a sustained data rate of up to 108GB/hour, with maximum compression. Storage for 60 cartridges, with a capacity of 420GB native and 1.2TB in compressed mode (3:1), is provided. Two Magstar MP model C drives power this library, providing near-on-line, reliable data access.

 

 
 Features
• Multi-path architecture allows multiple SCSI control paths. Multibus design provides for multihost attachments.
   
• Auto-cleaning drive function provides automatic detection and cleaning.
   
• Bar code reader improves inventory times.
   
• The dual picker locates and retrieve a cartridge, holds it while unloading the active cartridge in the drive, and then loads the new cartridge into the drive. This features saves a complete cycle.
   
 Media
C-XL format tape is used with the Magstar MP model C tape drive. It is fast access, linear tape, housed in a rugged cartridge designed for multiple mounts/demounts. The design of this tape allows the tape to be midpoint loaded providing fast access to data. 7GB native capacity per cartridge.

 

Model L12:
• Storage for 120 cartridges.
   
• Capacity of 840GB native and 2.5 TB (3:1compression).
   
• Two Magstar MP model C tape drives - standard.
   
• Two additional drives can be installed in the L12.
   
• The library, with four drives, can be configured as one or two logical libraries.
   
• Sustained data rate - 216GB/hour (maximum compression).
   
 Model L18:
• Storage for 180 cartridges.
   
• Capacity of 1.2TB native and 3.7TB (3:1compression).
   
• Two Magstar MP model C drives - standard.
   
• Four additional drives can be installed in the L18.
   
• The library, with six drives, can be configured as one, two, or three, user defined logical libraries.
   
• Sustained data rate - 324GB/hour (maximum compression)
