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, 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 also includes two removable 4-slot
magazines for bulk loading of media and a
convenient bulk storage unit for moving media off-
site. A standard bar code reader provides faster
inventory times and facilitates the tracking of media.
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. A set of rubber feet is provided in the
autoloader box to enable use on a desktop; however
for additional rigidity in this environment the purchase
of a rack-to-tabletop conversion kit is recommended.
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 or MSL4048 Tape Library.
