Product information for Quantum TC-L72AN-BR:
The Quantum LTO-7 internal tape drive, type TC-L72AN-BR, is a Streamer designed for use in server and storage systems. It is a Half-Height module that can be installed in standard 5.25-inch installation bays. The device is supplied as a Bare Drive, meaning it is delivered without an integrated control unit or additional components and must be integrated into existing storage solutions. It is designed for use in LTO Ultrium 6 and LTO Ultrium 7 systems, with compatibility with LTO-7 being the primary specification.
Applications
This tape drive is intended for secure, long-term data backup in enterprise environments. It is particularly suitable for backup systems requiring high capacities and reliable data protection over extended periods. Typical use cases include data centers, IT departments, or environments with high requirements for data integrity. The Half-Height form factor enables installation in standard server and rack systems, allowing flexible integration into existing infrastructures.
Functions and Features in Detail
The device offers a native storage capacity of 6 TB per tape, with up to 15 TB achievable through compression. The compression ratio depends on the data structure and is automatically determined during operation. The maximum transfer rate is 300 Mbps in uncompressed mode and 750 Mbps for compressed data. These values enable efficient data transfer, especially during large backup operations. The integrated 1 GB buffer ensures stable data transfer and minimizes the impact of speed differences between the tape and the storage system.
Technology Explained Simply
The tape drive uses LTO Ultrium 7 technology, which is based on magnetic tape media and optimized for high data density and reliability. The SAS interface (Serial Attached SCSI) with a bandwidth of 6 Gb/s ensures fast and reliable connection to the host system. The interface is standardized and widely used in modern server and storage solutions. The Half-Height form factor reduces space requirements within the server enclosure, allowing multiple drives to be installed in a single system. The term Bare Drive means the device is delivered without additional control units or software and must be integrated into an existing backup system.
Compatibility and Accessories
The device is compatible with LTO Ultrium 6 and LTO Ultrium 7 tapes. Using LTO-7 tapes enables full storage capacity and transfer rate. Integration is achieved via the SAS interface, which must be connected to appropriate host adapters and control units.
Installation and Mounting
Mounting is performed in a standard 5.25-inch bay, with the Half-Height form factor enabling compact placement. Installation requires connecting the SAS interface to a suitable host adapter. Physical mounting is done using screws or mounting elements provided in the server enclosure.
Operational Advantages
The combination of high storage capacity, fast data transfer, and compact design makes this device an efficient solution for data backup tasks. The use of LTO-7 technology ensures high reliability and long tape lifespan. The SAS interface enables quick integration into existing systems. The Bare Drive configuration offers flexibility for integration into various backup systems and allows individual configuration.
