Scalar i500 expansion modules provide drive space and cartridge slots.. This module adds an HP-branded LTO-4 Tape Drive. The Scalar i500 combines a flexible, modular design for fast and easy scalability with a single, continuous robotics system for performance, reliability, and overall value. The result is a library that grows easily with users' data but provides the operational simplicity of a single library. With the Scalar i500, users start with one of three preconfigured base systems. When more capacity is needed, users add an expansion module, installing it either above or below the base system. All media and drives in the library is served by a single, continuous robotics system for easier operation, higher performance, and increased reliability - there is never a need for pass-through ports, elevators, or other complex tape transfer systems. The self-aligning expansion modules slide into place quickly without additional mounting hardware.
