Plasmon
DVD Midrange Optical Libraries are cost-effective solutions for value-oriented
archival
environments. Robust and built to withstand high-volume use, these libraries
are well-suited for environments that need centralized access to The
midrange D-Series Plasmon automated libraries are available in three
different
models,
with from
80 to 480
slots, which
allows scaling
from 564 GB to 20 TB.
These DVD automated libraries come standard with Multi Drives, which
provide optimum flexibility and performance, allowing reading and writing
of DVD-RAM, DVD-R, DVD-RW, CD-R, and CD-RW media. Up to six Multi Drives
can be supported in a single library. These Multi Drives offer WORM
(Write Once, Read Many) data protection, and an optional Rotation Station™,
for double-sided media.
| Model | D120 | D240 | D480 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of Slots | 80-120 | 200-240 | 440-480 |
| Max Number of Drives | 4 | 6 | 6 |
| Capacity | 564GB - 1.12TB | 1.13TB - 2.25TB | 2.25TB - 4.51 TB |
| Robotics Average Access Time (seconds) | 3 | 3 | 4 |
The robotics feature a MBTF (Mean Time Between Failure) of 2,500,000 hours, and in addition to the optional Rotation Station™, they feature dual pickers for maximum performance and increased reliability. The robotics auto-calibrate for optimal alignment, and less downtime after repairs. Featured also are mail slots for import/export, for fast media interchanges, and tray-based media for dense capacity into a small footprint.
Connectivity options include an auto-sensing LVD SCSI interface to support easy configurations and longer cable lengths. Plasmon’s midrange DVD libraries also include multiple bus configuration for flexible connectivity options. These libraries are supported by over 20 different storage management software packages on thirteen different operating systems. All Plasmon optical archival solutions are also ISO-9001 certified.
