Simple to use, easy to manage – the 1/8 G2
autoloader provides an ideal transition from stand-
alone to automated tape backup. By automatically
changing tapes, manual intervention is minimized and
operating errors are reduced, enabling more reliable
and consistent backups. An integrated web-based
remote management capability allows a remote
administrator to control, configure, monitor and
troubleshoot the device and eliminating the need for
costly on-site IT resources.
Agility in storage and movement of data – each
autoloader includes a user-configurable mail slot for
the import/export of media cartridges. The autoloader
includes two removable 4-slot magazines for bulk
loading of media and also provides a convenient bulk
storage unit for moving media off-site. A standard bar
code reader provides faster inventory times and
facilitates tracking of media.
Added data security – to greatly enhance data
privacy, the HP StorageWorks 1/8 G2 Autoloader is
available with LTO-4 Ultrium 1760 hardware
encrypting tape drives for secure, high-performance
backup. HP offers an HP StorageWorks 1/8 G2 and
MSL LTO-4 Encryption Kit designed as an affordable,
easy to use, self-contained encryption solution.
Reduced installation time – the 1/8 G2 autoloader
is delivered as rack-ready for quick installation in a
standard 19" rack, with the purchase of a separate
rack-kit. It can also be converted to a tabletop
configuration by simply installing the enclosed
rubber feet.
Customer serviceable and replaceable components –
the easy to manage modular design of the 1/8 G2
autoloader allows for quick service or repair of units to
reduce downtime and maximize efficiency.
Investment protection – benefit from a straight-
forward upgrade path as your storage capacity and
performance needs grow by interchanging 1/8 G2
Tape Autoloader drives into a HP StorageWorks
MSL2024, MSL4048 or MSL8096 Tape Library.
