Spectra T120

The Spectra T120 library is easy to use, manage, and maintain. Installation and configuration is quick and simple, and component redundancy ensures the highest of reliability. Highly flexible, the T120 allows you to start with the features you need now, and add features and capacity as your data grows and backup requirements change.

Simple Operation and Better Library Control

BlueScale, the common software interface for all Spectra libraries, brings enterprise command and control features to the T120: encryption, power monitoring, advanced media management and multiple library control. Available through the library's on-board LCD color touchscreen and remote web access, BlueScale is a easy-to-navigate, browser-based library interface built into Spectra Logic libraries that enables our solutions to work simply, flexibly, and safely with your data.

Highly Reliable

Reliability is ensured by the T120's component redundancy with optional N+1 power supplies and manual drive fail-over capabilities. The library monitors its critical subsystems and notifies the user and Spectra Logic if the library needs support. Library Lifecycle Management (LLM) monitors your hardware and alerts you when a component needs attention before it fails. 

BlueScale Encryption

BlueScale Encryption is the only truly integrated encryption solution for data stored on tape. The T120 lets you seamlessly and affordably add encryption to your backup strategy with no changes to backup policies and no additional hardware or software. With AES-256 bit BlueScale Encryption and Key Management built into the T120, encrypting backed up data is secure, efficient, easy to manage—and free.

Media Lifecycle Management 

To ensure the viability of your data, Media Lifecycle Management (MLM) tracks and reports on health and security related statistics for Spectra Certified Media. Detailed reporting mitigates media problems and restore issues, allowing you to proactively remaster data onto new media before you need it. For further integrity, MLM PreScan™ tape verification ensures that newly imported tapes are in good health and ready to use. After writing, MLM PostScan™ tape verification assures that your data is available on the tape by confirming there are no media errors.Logic helps you manage your tape media by giving you tools to proactively detect potential media errors well before they happen.

LTO-6: Addressing your storage needs

With a capacity of 2.5 TB native and 6.25 TB compressed, LTO-6 drives and media help you consolidate your storage, manage less media, and have room to grow in the future. Experience shorter backup windows and transfer rates up to 160MB/s (400 MB/s compressed), delivering an average rate of 576 GB/hr (1.44 TB/hr compressed). Ultrium LTO Technology’s long-term, committed roadmap offers several future releases of LTO. With future generations, you can expect higher performance standards, increasing storage capacities and backwards compatibility. Learn More About LTO-6
