Reliable expansion
The StreamLine SL500 modular library system grows dynamically in capacity and performance without decreasing reliability to meet changing requirements in your data center.

Lower administrative costs
The enhanced remote management software enables you to manage the library almost anywhere in the world.

Investment protection
The SL500 library expands to higher slot count and drive counts using the same robotics and library automation architecture. You can add capacity with simple library upgrades, extending the useful life of the equipment and preserving your investment. In addition, with standard interfaces and StorageTek’s library control software you can easily share resources by connecting to other devices across multiple Windows or UNIX environments.

The fast streaming performance and larger cartridge storage sizes make the SL500 library an ideal choice for a wide range of backup environments, from small remote sites to corporate data centers. The modular SL500 library gives you a very adaptable platform that can accommodate your current and future storage consolidation and data protection needs.

Space Saving
The rack-mountable approach and dense cartridge slot design make the SL500 library a good fit in environments where space is at a premium. You can configure a standalone tape automation rack or combine the SL500 library in a rack with servers and disk storage arrays.
