Quantum Corp., the leading global specialist in backup, recovery and archive, today added Scalar i40 and i80 tape libraries to its industry-leading Scalar iLayer tape automation portfolio. Designed to provide SMBs and distributed data centers with more storage capacity, room for continued growth and simplified system management, the i40 and i80 set a new standard for tape libraries in this class, with prices starting at less than $7,500 MSRP. The new libraries join the Scalar i2000 and Scalar i500, which also incorporate Quantum’s iLayer management software, the first comprehensive system for evaluating the integrity of library drives and media. Like all Scalar libraries, the i40 and i80 provide users with a highly cost-effective means of long-term retention and disaster recovery as part of a balanced approach to data protection.
