Back to Contents Page Introduction: Dell™ PowerVault™ 122T LTO Autoloader User's Guide Overview The PowerVault 122T LTO autoloader is the first fully automated, rack mountable, 2U (3.34" height, 16.5" width), enterprise class LTO tape storage system designed to provide unattended, near-line and off-line data storage. This high throughput, high capacity, storage device is optimized for applications that provide archiving, hierarchical storage management, backup and retrieval functionality for low to mid-range servers and networks. The autoloader is a SCSI-2 low-voltage Differential (LVD) data storage device that incorporates a Dell PowerVault 122T LTO tape drive and eight tape slots. The autoloader occupies two SCSI target addresses, one for the tape drive and the other for the autoloader robotics. The autoloader uses up to eight LTO Ultrium cartridges, providing a maximum formatted capacity of 1.6 Terabytes and a sustained data transfer rate as high as 1.8 GB per minute, assuming 2:1 compression ratio. The autoloader is compatible with the most popular operating systems and environments supporting the SCSI interface, but it requires either direct support from the operating system or a compatible backup application to take full advantage of its many features.

Overview
The PowerVault 122T LTO autoloader is the first fully automated, rack mountable, 2U (3.34" height, 16.5" width), enterprise class LTO tape storage system
designed to provide unattended, near-line and off-line data storage. This high throughput, high capacity, storage device is optimized for applications that
provide archiving, hierarchical storage management, backup and retrieval functionality for low to mid-range servers and networks.
The autoloader is a SCSI-2 low-voltage Differential (LVD) data storage device that incorporates a Dell PowerVault 122T LTO tape drive and eight tape slots.
The autoloader occupies two SCSI target addresses, one for the tape drive and the other for the autoloader robotics. The autoloader uses up to eight LTO
Ultrium cartridges, providing a maximum formatted capacity of 1.6 Terabytes and a sustained data transfer rate as high as 1.8 GB per minute, assuming 2:1
compression ratio.
The autoloader is compatible with the most popular operating systems and environments supporting the SCSI interface, but it requires either direct support
from the operating system or a compatible backup application to take full advantage of its many features.
