The reliability, convenience, and affordability of tape media are still indisputable —
tape remains a vital part of any data protection and disaster-recovery strategy.
Some organizations have relied on tape autoloaders for data protection — but are now
nding that their needs have outgrown the capacity and performance of autoloaders.
For growing organizations, manually attended backups have become a major time sink,
keeping resources from other important work and raising staff costs unacceptably.
Organizations that must back up more than 1TB of data from disk to tape need more
than an autoloader — they need increased capacity and performance, as well as a way
of avoiding the stafng costs and potential data loss associated with manually attended
backups.
In the past, tape library solutions may have seemed too large, expensive, or complicated
for such organizations. But now, by changing the economics of storage, Dell has brought
the functionality and value of tape automation to smaller-but-growing organizations, with
the simplicity and affordability they need.
Dell PowerVault TL series tape libraries provide reliable, hands-off, around-the-clock
operation in compact, high-performance libraries that are customer installable and easy
to set up and manage. These libraries were designed to deliver maximum protection for
a minimal investment, putting tape automation within reach.
