The HP StorageWorks Enterprise Modular Library (EML) E-Series Tape Libraries provide performance, reliability and investment protection for your data protection needs. Based on the HP StorageWorks Extended Tape Library Architecture (ETLA), controllers between the SAN and the tape drives regulate traffic and help to ensure that rogue I/O requests do not interrupt the backup or recovery job in progress. Additionally, the hardware itself is very reliable, designed for 24×7 environments. Investment protection is achieved through the ability to scale up, out and through time. The EML E-Series Tape Libraries are fully integrated into the HP StorageWorks portfolio through compatibility and capacity points. The EML E-Series tape library is extensively tested in the Enterprise Backup Solution (EBS) to ensure that it works in the most rigorous environment. Documentation is provided to enable you to configure, design and implement the best data protection solution for your environment.
