Features

Features and Benefits

No Longer Orderable

This product has reached end-of-life and is no longer orderable. It is superceded by the next generation Sun StorageTek T10000B Tape Drive.

The T10000 tape drive sets the new standard on value and efficiency through advancements in capacity, throughput and media reusability.

Key Benefits

Drive efficiencies. Store more data in the same footprint and shorten backup and recovery windows with capacity of 500 gigabytes uncompressed data and throughput of 120 megabytes per second.
Reuse media. Use the same StorageTek T10000 tape cartridges for at least two generations by reformatting and reusing tape cartridges with next-generation drives.
Mitigate risk. Implement device-based encryption with the crypto-ready T10000 tape drive and choose the T10000 tape drive with VolSafe secure media technology for WORM storage.
Enhance reliability. Protect valuable information with the StorageTek SafeGuide system for tape guiding.
Support demanding, high duty cycle environments. Optimize operations with dual-head, 32-channel technology, which reduces the number of tape passes and extends head and media life. Boost reliability further with speed matching and dual error correction.

Reuse media

Use the same T10000 media for at least two generations. Reformat and reuse tape cartridges for up to one terabyte of data with next generation drives and take advantage of capacity and throughput improvements.

Reduce complexity

Connect using standard FICON and dual-port Fibre Channel options. Support Sun StorageTek enterprise tape libraries and virtual solutions as well as software from Sun and leading third-party providers.

Mitigate risk

Keep information safe

Protect valuable information with the T10000's SafeGuide system for enhanced tape guiding. Media is guided more accurately and reduces tape tension, resulting in less media wear and higher data integrity.

Be compliant with the law

Implement device-based encryption with the crypto-ready T10000 tape drive and choose the T10000 tape drive with VolSafe secure media technology for WORM storage.
