Sun StorageTek L1400 Tape Library

Features and Benefits

No Longer Orderable

Hassle-free integration. The Sun StorageTek L1400 tape library combines compatibility and flexibility to integrate seamlessly into IT environments.


Key Benefits

  • Centralized library management provides a productivity boost allowing drives, library assets, switches and backup applications to be monitored and managed from a single console.
  • Seamless support means easy integration with Solaris, UNIX, Linux and Windows NT environments and a variety of tape drives.
  • Scalability to grow from 200 to 678 slots in 100-slot increments, non-disruptively, but only when requirements demand it. Add a second frame to grow to 1344 slots.

Advanced scalability, flexibility and choice

Scale with no downtime

The L1400’s continuous capacity capability scales non-disruptively, without downtime, from 200 to 678 slots in 100-slot increments using a software key. The second library also scales non-disruptively.

Consolidate and save

The L1400 library solution is all about flexibility — the flexibility to quickly grow, adapt and manage change as new business challenges arise. Share the library seamlessly across Solaris, UNIX, Linux and Windows NT environments as well as multiple backup applications. The L1400's logical partitioning capabilities allow users to dynamically manage, create and change up to six logical partitions with no library downtime.

Enterprise reliability

The L1400 helps minimize or eliminate downtime and service interruptions with the advanced reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) features that StorageTek libraries are known for. Dynamic drive upgrades, hot-swappable components, and continuous calibration of robotics are just a few of these features.

Need to encrypt? Just say T10000

The Sun StorageTek T10000 tape drive gives you crypto-ready device-based encryption in a 500 GB capacity, 120 MB/sec drive. When you can do more work with fewer, faster drives, you're saving money and time. But built-in encryption is a big bonus. Plus, while you're adhering to regulations, these drives give you Sun StorageTek VolSafe secure media technology, the industry's most innovative non-erasable, non-rewritable, tape-based write once, read many (WORM) enterprise storage solution.
