PivotStor automated data protection simplifies the ever-expanding need for business continuity and data retention. It's the essential choice for organizations with requirements that can no longer be managed with direct-attach tape drives and tape autoloaders

Overview
The PivotStor TL2000 2U LTO Tape Library is ideal for businesses or departments that need dependable data protection and reliable data retention in an easy-to-use backup/archive solution. The TL2000 product family is designed with the flexibility of LTO Ultrium drive format and interface support to fit the customer's need, and the ability to easily increase their backup capabilities and data throughput by purchasing a second LTO-3HH drive or by upgrading to an LTO-4 FH (FC or SCSI LVD) or LTO-4HH (SAS) drive and doubling their capacity. And the PivotStor TL2000 is an easy out-of-the-box experience. Tape cartridges can be very easily inserted, or removed, through the mailslot without removing the entire left-side 12-slot tape cartridge magazine.

Total compressed data storage capacity ranges from 19.2 TB (LTO-3HH or LTO-3FH) to 38.4 TB (LTO-4HH or LTO-4FH). Compressed data transfer rates range from 432 GB per hour with a single LTO-3HH drive, 864 GB per hour with two LTO-3HH drives, 576 GB per hour with a single LTO-3FH or LTO-4HH drive, and 864 GBs per hour with a single LTO-4FH drive.

The TL2000 is available in several models depending on choice of LTO Ultrium drive: either a single or dual LTO-3HH drive with a SCSI or SAS interface, a single LTO-3FH with either a FC or SCSI interface, a single or dual LTO-4HH drive with a SAS interface, or LTO-4FH drive with a FC or SCSI interface. All models include two (2) 12-slot tape cartridge magazines (left-side with mailslot and right side). Available accessories include customer-installable LTO-3HH (SAS or SCSI LVD) or LTO-4HH (SAS) drives and additional 12-slot tape cartridge magazines.

Each TL2000 2U Tape Library family also includes industry-leading standard features such as a remote management user interface, a rack-mount kit, an ethernet cable, and a bar code reader. The TL2000 features a standard 1-year advance replacement warranty. Optional 1-year or 3-year warranty upgrades/extensions, and onsite installation are available.
