Dell TL2000 Many data protection challenges - one simple solution, Simplicity from the start

Many data protection challenges —  one simple solution

The PowerVault TL series tape libraries enable two critical data protection activities: backup and archiving.

Backup

Help avoid the risk of data loss. Create on-site backup copies of data, using the rewritable functionality of LTO media.

Archiving

Create permanent, portable archive copies of data using WORM (Write Once, Read Many) capability. WORM enables you to create data copies that cannot be overwritten, to help you comply with government and industry data-protection requirements.

Simplicity from the start

The PowerVault TL series tape libraries come rack-ready and can be connected to a server or a SAN. It features an intuitive operator control panel, plus remote Web management — you can perform setup and diagnostics, check status, monitor operations and logs, and upgrade firmware all from any standard Web browser.

The freedom of automation

Manual involvement in backup and recovery costs valuable staff time — and it could cost you data. The PowerVault TL series tape libraries can free your staff from the burden of attended backups, while freeing you from the worry of lost or misplaced tape cartridges.

Here’s how it works: the libraries contain multiple slots for storing tape media, and use a robotic mechanism to move media automatically and operate independently — unattended.

To keep contents properly organized, a bar code reader inventories all tapes stored in the library and tracks them as they are imported and exported. The optical cartridge-location technology enables precision cartridge handling and inventory, helping to improve the overall reliability of backups.

LTO-4 backs up a staggering 432GB per hour per drive, while your staff is deployed on other work. But you stay in control, with an intuitive LCD interface plus Web-based remote monitoring and management.

The entry level to mid-range tape library that’s right for you

With two models in the TL series to choose from, choose the size you need and you get the same great functionality in both units. The PowerVault TL4000 is a 4U solution holding up to 48 tapes, up to 38.4TB native capacity and is ideal for growing organizations. The PowerVault TL2000 is a 2U solution that holds up to 24 tapes for a native capacity of up to 19.2TB and is ideal for customers who are moving into the library technology.

If your data protection needs have grown and you want versatility and simplicity in an affordable compact tape-automation solution, choose the PowerVault TL series tape library.
