Enterprise Storage Without Compromise: The Spectra T950 Library
For enterprise organizations, the award-winning Spectra T950 library is the best
tape and VTL backup platform on the market. It offers the most features, highest
reliability, the most storage and is the only data protection platform offering the
options of integrated tape, VTL and AES-256 bit encryption with complete key
management. Spectra Logic BlueScale Encryption provides key management
through the standard library interfaces for both library-based encryption and
LTO-4 drive-based encryption.
Scale the Spectra T950 Library As Needed: Investment Protection
The Spectra T950 library grows along with your data. You can expand the
Spectra T950 librar y in large or small increments, adding capacity, drives and
VTL storage as you go. You can expand beyond one frame to as many as eight
frames, up to 120 drives, and as many as 10,050 cartridges.
Single-Frame Spectra T950
By adding an RXT drive, you
instantly add VTL capabilities to
your library.
