Effortlessly address both short-term and long-term storage capacity and performance needs and respond to unpredictable data growth, variance in service, or changes to backup window and retention period. Scale-out architecture allows you to pay as you grow - simply add in new modules to boost capacity and performance without investing in a whole new library.
The modular design of the MSL3040 includes a continuous robotics feature to provide in-box scaling for higher performance, greater scalability, and higher reliability. Upgrades are fast and non-disruptive. Scale vertically from 32 to 272* cartridge slots to store up to 8.16PB** in a single 19-inch rack. Several drive options are available

Ultrium 6250 FC or SAS tape drives
Scaling up with the MSL3040 couldn't be easier:
Start with an empty Base Library
Add a redundant power supply if required***
Add between 1 and 3 LTO-8, LTO-7 or LTO-6 half-height tape drives and utilize up to 32
cartridge slots - a fully configured base unit with LTO-8 provides a max capacity of up to 960TB (assuming 2.5:1 compression)
Then add between 1 and 6 empty expansion modules to the Base Library - each 3U
expansion module might require a power supply if further drives are to be installed in the expansion. Redundant power supply needs to be added if required***.
Expansion modules can be flexibly installed above or below the base library module*.
You can then configure each expansion module with up to 3x LTO-8, LTO-7, or LTO-6 FC or
SAS tape drives and utilize up to 40 cartridge slots per expansion module*
NOTE:
*The lowest 8 slots of the library, whether part of the base library or an expansion, are inaccessible. An expansion unit adds 40 slots to the base unit. If an expansion is installed underneath the base unit the lowest 8 slots of the expansion unit become inaccessible. **Assumes fully loaded with LTO-8 media cartridges at a 2.5:1 data compression ratio

Disaster Recovery
Tape is inherently 'offline to threats' - tape's removable media is off-line to the threats from
viruses, hackers and cyber-attacks that online data on disk is susceptible to. It is also a logically clean copy that won't be accidentally overwritten by mirroring software.
LTO-8, LTO-7 and LTO-6 Ultrium tape drives include hardware based data encryption to
prevent unauthorized access to data at rest.
LTO-8, LTO-7 and LTO-6 cartridges are available with write-once-read-many (WORM)
capability to prevent accidental overwriting of data archived on the tape.

HPE 1/8 G2 & MSL Encryption Kit
The HPE MSL Encryption Kit provides a library-enabled encryption solution that greatly enhances
requirements. While there are a wide range of encryption solutions available, the HPE MSL Encryption Kit is intended to be an easy and affordable library-enabled solution for small businesses. The encryption kit includes two USB key server tokens, product documentation, and firmware support. One encryption kit is needed per library, which must be physically accessible so that the USB token can be inserted into the automation device. The second token will be used as a backup token, in case the first one is lost in the library and will generate and maintain encryption keys for the LTO-4 and later generation drives. The USB key server token uses a hardware random number generator, password authentication, and digital envelopes for strong encryption keys and security operations. The encryption kit provides a self-contained solution for autoloaders and MSL libraries with no additional software, PCs, or servers required or involved.
KMIP
The HPE MSL3040 is capable of operation using the KMIP 1.2 protocol. One library encryption license will be needed based on the KMIP protocol.
