T950 library
T950 - Lowering your data
protection TCO

The Spectra T950 library is a world-class enterprise tape and disk
automation library. For data backup and recovery, this elite library
leads the field in cost-effective innovation--from the greatest storage
density to the first true integration of disk in an automated library.
The Spectra T950 library is the best of breed, and with its lowest cost
of ownership, is also the best deal for your data center.
- Easy to use, manage and maintain—lowering
management costs.
- Highly reliable with WORM, guaranteed support, redundant
components, and high-security features - reducing risk.
- A library you can expand, as you need to, in any way you
need to - in performance, capacity, media, connectivity, and more,
including an option that lets you readily add disk—
protecting
your investment.
Spectra T950 library offers you:

- Minimum configuration has as few as 100 tape slots and two
drives
- Scale up to as many as 6150 slots depending on the number
of drives
- Scale up to as many as 120 drives depending on the number
of slots
- Cascades up to five frames with single robotic mechanism,
which increases reliability and lowers cost
- LTO and SDLT mixed media or portable RXT disk
- Controller-based connectivity (QIP) , supporting Fibre
Channel and Gigabit Ethernet with iSCSI
- Hot swap components, including drives and controllers
- A wide array of additional features , thanks to the
T950’s BlueScale software environment
Technical Overview
The T950’s BlueScale environment is the library’s
core—the library’s intelligence. BlueScale software
is the
results of a decade’s work in data protection and tape
libraries—disk, too. This intelligence provides the features
that
make up the T950, and its ability to support new technologies as they
evolve. The BlueScale environment supports:
- Partitioning—Shared Library Services
(SLS)—without external hardware or software
- Capacity on Demand (CoD) lets you add capacity, on demand,
simply by logging onto the Spectra Logic Web site and requesting a key
that you use to enable the new slots
- Hot-swap drives and controllers; redundant components;
high density: modular design
- Guaranteed support, including Assisted self-maintenance
(ASM) option and AutoSupport.
- WORM-compatible media, with LTO, SDLT, and RXT disk
- Observatory, Remote Library Controller (RLC), and
graphical touch screen front panel to simplify library management and
use
- A wide range of connectivity options through the T950
controller Quad Interface Processor (QIP).
- Compatible with all major operating systems, backup
software packages, and standard data center racks.
- Ground-breaking
BlueScale technology including available high security tape encryption
