Expandable Storage Density

The HPE Storage MSL3040 Tape Library features a scale-out architecture that grows with your needs. Add modules to increase capacity and performance without replacing the library.
Scale vertically from 80 to 640 cartridge slots to store up to 28.8 PB of data using LTO-9 at 2.5:1 compression. Add up to 48 HH LTO-8 or LTO-9 SAS or FC drives.
HPE Storage MSL3040 Tape Library delivers cost-efficient density with 13 cartridge slots - or 600 TB (using LTO-9 tapes and 2.5:1 compression) - per 1U of rack space, scaling from 40 to 640 slots in a single expandable library, eliminating costly replacements as your requirements grow.
Partitioning allows for the creation of virtual libraries that operate independently, maximizing utilization and reducing the need for additional hardware, lowering overall infrastructure costs.

Advanced Security Features

In-library air-gap protection with MSL vault partition, isolating media without removing cartridges from the library, or create a physical air-gap by removing the media from the library.
Multifactor Authentication (MFA) support adds an extra layer of protection for secure library management.
Reduce the threat of cyberattack with the MSL encryption kit, a fully self-contained encryption system which can be deployed without the need for an extra server or appliance, additional software or the complexity of a full KMIP solution.
High availability path failover uses host drivers in conjunction with library and drive firmware to manage multiple paths across multiple SANs. It presents a single drive or robot path to applications and automatically transfers commands to an alternate path if the original one is lost.
Protect critical data with immutable WORM storage and media specified for a 30-year shelf life under normal ambient conditions. Easily move rugged LTO cartridges off-site for disaster recover while preventing accidental overwrites.

Simplified Management

HPE Storage Tape Library Management Software manages, configures, and monitors tape libraries from any remote location through a single browser-based interface.
A centralized, intuitive interface enables configuration, management, and monitoring of tape libraries from a single console, on-site or remotely, streamlining operations through real-time status visibility and simplified access to library settings with - HPE Storage Command View for Tape Libraries.
Enable predictive analytics and detailed health and performance reporting to help IT teams optimize resources, plan proactively, and maintain smooth, reliable operations with - HPE StoreEver MSL Command View for Tape Libraries - Tape Assure Advanced LTU.
Proactively validate and scan the quality of data stored on LTO tape cartridges, helping ensure the successful retrieval of data - with HPE StoreEver MSL3040 Command View for Tape Libraries - Data Verification Software LTU.
Easily manage your media both in or out of the library with our standard barcode reader.

Flexible and Reliable

Expand capacity or performance with easy-to-install LTO drive upgrade kits. Add a new LTO-8 or LTO-9 drive, or reuse one from an existing HPE autoloader or tape library. No additional license fees apply when adding drives to an existing library.
SAS and Fiber Channel (FC) interface options available, offering enhanced flexibility for seamless integration into your environment.
The HPE Storage Tape Library works with industry-leading servers, operating systems, and backup software. For more information, please see the HPE Storage Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge - SPOCK

The enormous, data-driven potential of emerging technologies such as 5G, AI, ML, and IoT is creating a plethora of opportunities for businesses to transform their operations. The challenge is that though these opportunities abound, they are truly diverse and may require very different storage optimizations. The highly scalable HPE StoreEver MSL3040 Tape Library offers enormous storage density in a cyber-resilient, scalable, and flexible form factor, which can start small but grow very big indeed, all the while costing less to run and own than other archival storage alternatives. With its modular design and ability to upgrade and reuse MSL LTO upgrade drive kits, you can cost-effectively store up to 28.8 PB of data. [1] The MSL3040 offers exceptional enterprise features and functionality. It delivers a tape storage solution that addresses long-term data management challenges, while also providing an air-gapped solution against the threat of ransomware.

What is new supporting point:
The MSL3040 tape library now supports up to 15 expansion modules, scaling up to a capacity of 28.8 PB [2]
MSL3040 tape library 48U spooling kit is now available. This enables existing MSL3040 customers to add additional expansion modules (see QuickSpecs for more details)
