Product Description
The HP BRSLA-1203-DC is a high-performance LTO-6 Ultrium tape drive specifically designed as a loader drive for HP's MSL (Modular Smart Array Library) tape storage solutions, such as the MSL ULT6250. This half-height (HH) drive leverages Fibre Channel (FC) connectivity, offering robust and high-speed data transfer capabilities suitable for demanding enterprise backup and archiving environments. As an LTO-6 drive, it represents a significant leap in capacity and performance over previous generations. It can store a native 6.25TB of data on a single LTO-6 cartridge, which expands to an impressive 15TB when using hardware data compression. The native data transfer rate is 160 MB/s, accelerating to 360 MB/s with compression, thereby reducing backup windows and improving operational efficiency. This drive is engineered for seamless integration into HP MSL tape libraries, ensuring compatibility and optimal performance within the HP ecosystem. It supports backward read compatibility with LTO-5 media and write compatibility with LTO-5 media, providing flexibility for organizations transitioning their tape infrastructure. The BRSLA-1203-DC is a key component for reliable, scalable, and cost-effective data protection and long-term data retention strategies.
