SymplyPRO XTL 80 LTO-7 HH 6Gb SAS Tape Library – Product Overview

The SymplyPRO XTL 80 brings automated LTO tape storage to professional backup and archive workflows. The 6U base module holds 80 cartridges and comes in this configuration with one half-height LTO-7 drive and native 6Gb SAS (SFF-8088) connectivity. It is designed for organisations that need managed tape rotation, offline copies and an expandable archive platform.


LTO-7 Capacity and Performance

A compatible LTO-7 cartridge stores 6TB natively or up to 15TB with a 2.5:1 compression assumption. A fully loaded 80-slot base module therefore offers up to 480TB native or 1.2PB compressed media capacity. The installed half-height drive transfers up to 300MB/s natively; actual results depend on the host, software, media and workload.


Automated Media Handling

Library robotics, an integrated barcode reader, two removable tape magazines and ten import/export mail slots per module help streamline tape inventory and movement. Front-panel operation and password-protected browser administration support library monitoring, configuration, diagnostics and media handling without manual cartridge-by-cartridge intervention.


Modular Capacity and Resilience

The XTL 80 can grow from one 6U, 80-slot base module to a maximum of seven modules and 560 cartridge slots. The supplied configuration has one half-height LTO-7 drive. The modular chassis provides capacity for up to six half-height or three full-height drives per module when expanded with compatible additional hardware. Redundant power supplies are standard in the XTL 80 platform.


SAS Integration and Archive Protection

The installed 6Gb SAS (SFF-8088) drive connects to compatible host hardware and tape backup or archive software. The tape drive and library robotics are presented as separate logical units, so the host must discover both. Hardware AES-256 encryption, LTO WORM media and LTFS provide further options for controlled long-term retention when supported by the selected media and applications.
