Evaluating Tape Libraries for Storage Consolidation

2K - Low-cost, entry-level backup and SAN solution for today’s distributed servers


Spectra Logic's Spectra 2K tape libraries provide reliable backup, at a price comparable to the servers or filers it protects. With features such as electronic barcode scanning, removable cartridge packs and drive modules, the Spectra 2K library offers high-end features at an entry-level price.

Configured with 15 or 30 cartridges and one or two Sony AIT drives, the Spectra 2K libraries are available in SCSI-2 (Single-ended, HVD or LVD), Fibre Channel (supporting private loop, public loop and fabric topologies), and 1000Base-T (iSCSI or NDMP) models. As interface and AIT technologies evolve, your library can be upgraded; your library can grow as your data grows.  Backed by Spectra Logic’s 3-year replacement service, QuickSwap, Spectra 2K delivers the best value. 

Worldwide, Spectra Logic has over 17,000 libraries installed in commercial, industrial, educational, institutional and governmental organizations.

Spectra Logic Corporation’s Spectra® 2K iSCSI tape library receives “Excellent” award from InfoWorld Media Group, responsible for delivering award-winning technology and product news, research and analysis to the IT community for more than 25 years.
