It’s the 6^th day of storage Christmas and we’re half-way home. What better way to celebrate the holiday than with a ginormous gift under the tree? How about a gift that stores well over a petabyte of data in a single rack!

The Spectra T680 in our midrange library family is actually designed to fit both midrange and large data center customers who need intense density and a great economic story. Santa and his elves can fill a lot of stockings in a flash, but even they will find it tough to fill this library quickly! Give us a call and find out how the T680 can help make for a great holiday season, not only for your storage admins, but for your business.

On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

6 T680’s

5 Tapes without Pain!

4 Global Spare Drives,

3 Encryption Keys,

2 Spectra Certified Tapes,

and a large frosty beer.

"When we set out on our search to find a storage solution capable of preserving Imperial War Museums’ substantial digital archive, there were specific criteria on which we were not willing to compromise. Spectra met all of our requirements and then some, and now continues to deliver with StorCycle’s storage lifecycle management capabilities."

"The new library has just shy of 14,000 slots for tapes. We were able to easily move all 70 petabytes of existing data into the new system and have grown to 104 petabytes in size and have plenty of room for at least a year or two before we have to start thinking about expanding."

"We have to store a lot of data for long periods of time. A single microscope can capture 10TB of data in as little as a few hours, and a published breakthrough on cancer research can take anywhere from a few years to a couple of decades. The BlackPearl and tape solution from Spectra provides a scalable and cost-effective way to store multiple data workflows with varying retention requirements."
