With a rating of 2,000,000 robot load/unload cycles, the 1/8 G2 Tape Autoloader provides necessary
high reliability for today's demanding environment. To improve reliability and longevity, all HP Ultrium
products feature Data Rate Matching (DRM). This allows the tape drive to dynamically and continuously
adjust the speed of the drive, from 7 MB/s to 140 MB/s, to match the speed of the host or network. This
increases performance, reduces mechanical wear on the tape drive and extends tape life.

The HP Secure Advantage portfolio is expanding to include a new offering intended for data protection
in small to medium businesses. The HP StorageWorks 1/8 G2 & MSL Encryption Kit provides a library-
enabled encryption solution that greatly enhances data privacy, confidentiality, and integrity of your
critical business data while supporting compliance requirements. While there are a wide range of
encryption solutions available, the HP StorageWorks 1/8 G2 & MSL Encryption Kit is intended to be an
easy and affordable library-enabled solution for small businesses.

Protect the confidentiality and integrity of your data:
The encryption kit includes two USB key server tokens, product documentation, and firmware support.
One encryption kit is needed per library or autoloader and it must be physically accessible so that the
USB token can be inserted into the automation device. One of the two tokens will plug into the USB port
in the autoloader or library and will generate and maintain encryption keys for the LTO-5 and LTO-4
drives/libraries. The USB key server token uses a hardware random number generator, a cryptographic
module running on FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validated hardware, password authentication, and digital
envelopes for strong encryption keys and security operations. The second USB token is intended to
provide a backup to the first. The keys are transferred securely token-to-token for backup or export, with
no exposure to insecure PCs, servers, or networks. The encryption kit provides a self-contained solution
for MSL libraries with no additional software, PCs, or servers required or involved.

Protect IT resources and meet compliance requirements:
With the HP StorageWorks 1/8 G2 & MSL Encryption Kit, users can enable or disable encryption,
configure the USB key server tokens, restore encrypted data, as well as a variety of other tasks. In
addition, the LTO-5 and LTO-4 tape drives use the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) with the longest
and most secure keys -- 256 bits. AES-256 encryption is implemented using the Galois Counter Mode
(GCM). This method adds Message Authentication Codes to ensure the integrity as well as privacy of the
backup data stored on tape. The HP LTO-5 and LTO-4 Ultrium Tape Drives are designed to be
compliant with the emerging standard for tape media security (IEEE 1619.1).
