Quantum Scalar i500: Overview
The Scalar i500 is the intelligent library platform that gives growing midrange storage environments faster, easier, and more reliable data protection. The Scalar i500 combines modular design with continuous robotics to provide industry-leading scalability, performance, and reliability. Designed with the iPlatform architecture and the iLayer management approach, the Scalar i500 makes backup easier to manage. Its proactive monitoring and remote diagnostics can reduce service calls by 50% and shorten issue resolution times by 30%. Its capacity-on-demand scalability lets it grow non-disruptively with users' data. And the Scalar i500 is designed to integrate easily with disk backup making it the perfect library for next-generation backup architectures. With the Scalar i500, IT managers can be assured they will have reliable, high-performance backup, certain restores, and effective long term protection for years into the future, no matter how their storage needs evolve.
Features and Benefits
iPlatform architecture and iLayer management approach integrates intelligent management into the library
Proactive monitoring and remote diagnostics can reduce service calls 50% and shorten resolution time by 30%
Combines flexible, modular architecture with a single, continuous robotics system for enhanced scalability, performance, and reliability
Streamlined expansion and capacity-on-demand growth lets library easily expand with data
Native SMI-S support allows direct management by leading SRM tools, including EMC ControlCenter
Designed to integrate easily with leading disk backup solutions
One-year warranty with enhanced service options
Ideal Backup for
Midrange storage environments looking for a flexible solution that offers long term protection.
What’s in the Box
The Scalar i500 23U base system ships with choices of 36, 82, 128, 174 or 218 activated slots and 10 drive bays. Expansion Units, 9U in height with up to 4 drives and 92 tape positions, can be added to any base system to build an extended library of up to 18 drives and 402 tape positions. The Scalar i500 23U library ships as a 14U base system and 9U expansion module with all components integrated and tested in each library. A rack kit and accessory kit is included with each library. The Scalar i500 accessory kit includes a Quick Start Guide (Paper Fold-out), User's Guide (CD), Customer Training Guide (CD), Module-to-Module library terminators (2), Module-to-Module communications cable, US and European power cord and SCSI terminator (up to 5 based on drive count).
