HP Storageworks Enterprise Modular Library E-Series 103e Base Library

HP Storageworks Enterprise Modular Library E-Series 103e Base Library ... performance, reliability and investment protection for your data protection needs. Based on the HP StorageWorks Extended Tape Library Architecture (ETLA), controllers between the SAN and the tape drives regulate traffic and help to ensure that rogue I/O requests do not interrupt the backup or recovery job in progress.

Additionally, the hardware itself is very reliable, designed for 24x7 environments. Investment protection is achieved through the ability to scale up, out and through time. Through the addition of expansion modules, the EML library scales to 16 drives and over 440 slots. Future expansion modules will allow the EML E-Series to scale beyond 500 slots within the library footprint. As new HP Ultrium tape drives are introduced they may be integrated into the existing frame further improving capacity and performance.

The EML E-Series Tape Libraries are fully integrated into the HP StorageWorks portfolio through compatibility and capacity points. The EML E-Series tape library is extensively tested in the Enterprise Backup Solution (EBS) to ensure that it works in the most rigorous environment. Documentation is provided to enable you to configure, design and implement the best data protection solution for your environment.
