Storage

Because HPE offers a comprehensive data protection portfolio for Hybrid IT, it understands the requirements for current and next generation LTO Ultrium tape solutions. In particular, the importance of media reliability in providing a long term home for archive data, as well as a final safeguard against natural disasters, network or power outages, human error, or malicious acts. Spectra TeraPack Media is designed to ensure that customers have the most reliable and automated tape storage solution available. Our approach places the emphasis on ongoing enhancements and features that simplify virtually all aspects of the media management process.

HPE Storage Tape Library Management Software provides an easy-to-use interface for efficiently managing, monitoring and configuring an entire tape library environment. The Storage Tape Library Management Software suite is made up of HPE Command View for  Tape Libraries (CVTL),  HPE StoreEver TapeAssure Advanced and HPE StoreEver Data Verification. CVTL provides the centralized platform for TapeAssure Advanced reporting and Data Verification analysis, along with remote management, diagnostics and configuration for all MSL Tape Libraries from across the room or across the globe. HPE StoreEver TapeAssure Advanced provides predictive, analytical reporting of health and performance information for all drives and cartridges.  HPE StoreEver Data Verification Software proactively validates and scans, non-disruptively, the quality of data stored on LTO tape cartridges, which ensures the successful retrieval of critical business data.

HPE Storage LTO Ultrium Cartridges provide up to 75 TB of ultra-low-cost storage to protect your data against the threat of cyberattack and meet the need for maximum reliability when restoring data. They enable businesses to comply with the recommendations of law enforcement agencies around the world to maintain offline copies of their data. Built upon a 25-year legacy of ten generations, with native transfer speeds of up to 400 MB/s for LTO-10, there is a platform for every budget. Secure AES-256 encryption (per FIPS 197) provides even higher levels of data security and compliance with the most stringent industry regulations to prevent unauthorized data access. Linear Tape File System (LTFS) makes using tape as easy, flexible, portable and intuitive as using other removable and shareable media, such as a USB drive. Also, because LTO cartridges at rest require minimal additional power and cooling, they offer a greener, more sustainable long-term archival solution for your data.

The HPE Storage Rack-mount Kits (formerly known as HPE StoreEver Rack-mount Kits) provide a high-density, rack-mountable tape drive solution for SAS backup and archiving applications in a 1U rack-mount kit.

The HPE Storage MSL2024 Tape Library delivers secure, reliable, and cost-effective data protection for small to mid-sized environments. Designed to support backup, recovery, and long-term retention requirements, the MSL2024 leverages LTO Ultrium tape technology to provide high-capacity, offline storage that helps protect critical data from ransomware, cyber threats, and accidental deletion. With automated tape handling, hardware-based data encryption, and broad compatibility with leading backup applications, the MSL2024 enables organizations to implement a robust physical air-gapped protection strategy. Simple deployment, web-based management, and a compact 2U design make it an ideal solution for safeguarding data while controlling costs and complexity.

HPE Storage LTO Ultrium Tape Drives (formerly known as HPE StoreEver LTO Ultrium Tape Drives) represent nine generations of linear tape open (LTO) technology capable of storing up to 45 TB¹ per cartridge, with hardware data encryption, with linear tape file system (LTFS) for ease of use at an unprecedented performance. Data hardware encryption using AES 256-bit provides easy-to-enable security to protect the most sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access of tape cartridges. LTFS is an open format for storing data on tape that makes LTO generation 5 and later tapes self-describing and file-based. Capable of data transfer rates up to 300 MB/s native, the data rate matching further helps optimize performance by matching host system speed to keep drives streaming, thus enabling a faster tape performance.

The HPE Storage MSL3040 Tape Library is a scalable, modular data protection solution designed for SMB to mid-sized environments. It starts with a fully functional 3U base unit that can be equipped with up to three drives and operates as a compact yet powerful backup and archival system. From there, it can scale up to 48U with expansion modules, supporting up to 640 cartridges and 48 half-height LTO tape drives for up to 28.8 PB of compressed storage. Ideal for long-term backup and archiving, it offers data encryption, WORM support, and remote management. Providing an air-gapped solution against the threat of ransomware. The HPE Storage MSL3040 Tape Library delivers reliable, secure, and cost-effective storage, making it an excellent choice for businesses needing secure, scalable, and low-cost data retention.
