HP StoreEver MSL2024 and MSL4048 Tape Libraries
The HP StoreEver MSL Tape Libraries meet demanding storage requirement of businesses needing unattended backup, disaster
recovery, or archive capability. The MSL Libraries offer a broad choice of storage capacity and technology including LTO-6, LTO-5,
or LTO-4, Ultrium tape drives. Web-based remote management makes the MSL Libraries easily managed from across the room or
across the globe, eliminating the need for remote office IT staff. Quickly and simply manage the tape media both in and out of the
library with the standard bar code reader, configurable mail slots, and multiple 12-slot removable magazines. If a tape were lost
or stolen, protect important business data from unauthorized access with data encryption options. MSL library investment
protection and uncertain data growth are easily managed within the MSL library portfolio. Quickly increase capacity and/or
performance with tool-free drive upgrades in the MSL2024 or 4048, or move tape drive kits to the MSL6480 for library scalability
and additional enterprise class features. Proactively receive detailed information about your MSL libraries with TapeAssure.
Information about the library, drives, and media are all monitored for utilization, operational performance, and life and health
information. Prevent problems before they occur by proactively receiving notification if any library, drive or tape media
parameters fall below HP recommended standards.
