Two NEC Low-End LTO Libraries

Up to two drives/30 cartridges/2U and 4/60/4U

NEC Europe Ltd. today announced its compact LTO Libraries which meet demand for data backup and archive requirements while reducing the initial capital investment by up to 25 per cent. The NEC T30A and NEC T60A Libraries provide high cartridge density for 2U and 4U standard tape modules.

"NEC has over forty years of experience in developing and manufacturing a wide range of tape products for its mainframe systems and open systems. NEC has leveraged its extensive background in magnetic tape to develop the highly reliable NEC T30A and NEC T60A to address the mission-critical requirements of its customers," said Takao Maruyama, Associate Senior Vice President, NEC.

The NEC T30A and NEC T60A are midrange data backup solutions that enable organizations to automate their backup processes and reduce the need for manual intervention and the risk of human error.

Both products come with the key management tools for data encryption as well as partitioning (to be released in Q1 of 2012) which enable security protection. In addition, their remote management system facilitates offsite data management via a web interface. The administration screen allows easy monitoring, control, configuration and library servicing.

The NEC T30A and T60A support different generation LTO drives which enable data migration from former generation to newer generation. They are compatible with all major archive and backup applications including Symantec NetBackup, IBM TSM, and BrightStor ARCserve.

The NEC T30A takes up just two standard height units in a 19-inch rack and it has a capacity of 18 data cartridges. The system can be upgraded from 18 to 30 cartridges with a software license. The device can be equipped with up to two half height LTO 4 or LTO 5 drives. It has a maximum storage capacity of 90 TB (compressed).

The NEC T60A takes up four standard height units in a 19-inch rack and has a capacity of 48 data cartridges. The system can be upgraded from 48 to 60 cartridges with a software license.

The device can be equipped with up to four half height LTO 4 or LTO 5 drives. It has a maximum storage capacity of 180 TB (compressed) supported by dual power supply modules.

In addition to a data rate of up to 140 MB/Sec and 1.5 Terabytes of native capacity, LTO 5 provides a partitioning feature called Linear Tape File System (LTFS) that allows access to data on LTO tapes in a manner similar to that of a removable hard disk drive and offers directory tree access to tape files.

The NEC T30A and NEC T60A will be available from certified NEC channel partners starting in August this year.
