Agile, Advanced, and Affordable: The Spectra T50 Library
The Spectra T50 is an easy-to-use library that includes BlueScale Encryption,
so you can encrypt and backup data in a single step. The Spectra T50 library
scales easily, growing with your data. Add drives to increase throughput, and add
slots in just minutes to increase capacity. The library is easy to manage using the
BlueScale 10 library interface, available either through the library’s touch-screen
front panel or through a Web browser from anywhere. Manage encryption through
the same interface, using BlueScale key management features that let you
create, protect, and encrypt copies of keys for safekeeping. The Spectra T50
library provides features and an ease-of-use that are unmatched.
