T-Series Mid Range Libraries
T200, T380, T680
Enterprise Functionality and Scalability at Mid-Range Prices

Preserve your initial storage investment with Spectra Logic's T-Series
Mid-Range libraries. By utilizing interchangeable components, our
libraries easily transform and scale (TranScale™) to protect
your storage investment as your organization—and
data—grows. Designed with enterprise-level functionality at
mid-range prices, the T-Series Mid-Range libraries feature unmatched
storage density, integrated encryption, power-usage monitoring, and the
ability to add disk-based backup alongside tape—all inside
the same library unit. Ideal for growing mid-range organizations,
Spectra's T-Series Mid-Range libraries meet your storage capacity and
feature needs now and in the future.
Spectra T-Series Mid-Range Libraries can:
- Start with 50 tape slots and scale up to as many as 680
slots.
- Scale up to as many as 12 drives.
- Don't stop there. With the TranScale architecture, you can
upgrade to a larger T-Series Library and preserve your investment by
continuing to use the expensive library components. Interchange the:
- Power Supplies
- Drives
- Interfaces (QIPs)
- TeraPacks
- Add SATA-based RXT media, instantly adding VTL to your
backup strategy.
- Support mixed media, within a single enclosure, of any
combination of
LTO and SDLT tape technologies, and mobile RXT VTL media.
Technical Features
Spectra T-Series Mid-Range BlueScale 10 environment is the library's
core intelligence. BlueScale technology is backed by a decade's work in
data protection with tape and disk libraries. Its intelligence provides
the Spectra T-Series current innovative features, as well as its
ability to support new technologies as
they evolve.
The BlueScale
environment supports:
- Integrated BlueScale
Encryption that supplies hardware-based encryption
through our QIP or LTO-4 hardware and total key management (including
LTO-4), with no external hardware or software
- Partitioning through Shared Library Services (SLS) without
external
hardware or software
- Capacity on Demand (CoD), which lets you add capacity as
you need it
and when you need it, simply by logging onto the Spectra Logic Web site
and requesting a key that you use to enable new slots
- Hot-swap drives and controllers, redundant components, and
high-density
modular design
- Guaranteed on-time support, including an assisted
self-maintenance
(ASM) option and AutoSupport
- WORM-compatible media, with LTO, SDLT, and RXT disk
- Support for integrated removable RXT RAID VTL
- Observatory, Remote Library Controller (RLC), and graphical
touch-screen front panel to simplify library management and use
- Connectivity with Fibre Channel and SCSI drives
- Compatible with all major operating systems, backup
software packages,
and standard data center racks
- Ground-breaking BlueScale EnergyAudit™ power
monitoring
feature
Free Encryption
Spectra T-Series Mid-Range libraries supply a one-step encryption and
backup process, BlueScale
Encryption, as a standard
feature—letting you protect your data using
federally-approved AES-256 encryption while backing up your data.
BlueScale Encryption is the only truly integrated encryption for data
stored on tape and RXT mobile disk, and lets you seamlessly and
affordably add encryption to your backup strategy without changing any
existing backup policies and requires no additional hardware or
software.
Media Lifecycle Management
Spectra Logic helps you manage your tape media by giving you tools to
proactively detect potential media errors well before they happen.
Available only in Spectra Logic's T-Series libraries, Media Lifecycle
Management records 30 data points every time a tape is loaded, giving
you vital statistical and diagnostic information that helps you
proactively manage your tape media throughout its life. By utilizing
our Certified Media and BlueScale interface together, you can manage,
track, and report all facets of tape usage from creation to retirement
— all consolidated within the same application you use to
manage your library.
BlueScale Vision™
Get an additional level of performance and health monitoring for your
library by visually monitoring the interior of your library
with the web-based BlueScale Vision camera. BlueScale Vision
allows you to remotely observe import/export operations, tape mounts,
cartridge moves, and robotic operations—all in real time.
