Two (TS3100) or four (TS3200) removable magazine that can house up to 12 data cartridges to
enable quick population of the tape library and ease the storage needs for media.

partition must have at least one drive). It also can provide each logical library its own separate and
distinct drives, storage slots, and control paths.
Optional System Managed and Library Managed Encryption on LTO Ultrium 7, Ultrium 6,
and Ultrium 5 tape drives with a Transparent LTO Encryption feature.
Optional Path Failover that enables the host device driver to transparently switch to an alternative
path if there is a communication path failure to the application.
An optional rack mount kit, an extra power supply for the TS3200 and more cartridge magazines.
3 Gb or 6 Gbps SAS, or 4 Gb or 8 Gb Fibre Channel attachments for connection to select System x,
