Description

The IBM 3590-E11/S is an external library module designed to expand the capabilities of the IBM 3590 tape storage system. This unit features an integrated 10-slot autochanger, allowing for automated management of multiple tape cartridges. Each tape cartridge supported by this system can store 20GB of data natively, scaling up to 60GB when data compression is applied, making it an efficient solution for large-scale data backup and long-term archiving. Connectivity is provided via a SCSI-W-DIFF (Wide Differential SCSI) interface, which offers high bandwidth and robust signal integrity, suitable for demanding enterprise environments. The external library form factor allows it to be connected to various servers or storage arrays, providing a centralized and scalable tape storage solution. The automated nature of the library reduces the need for manual intervention, improving operational efficiency and reliability. This module is part of IBM's renowned 3590 series, known for its performance, reliability, and capacity. It is an ideal choice for organizations that need to manage significant amounts of data and require a dependable system for backup and disaster recovery. The 3590-E11/S provides a cost-effective way to increase tape storage capacity and automate tape handling processes within an existing 3590 infrastructure.
