Designed with Quantum's iPlatform architecture and iLayer management approach, the Scalari500 makes backup easier to manage. Its proactive monitoring and remote diagnostics can reduce service calls by 50% and shorten issue resolution times by 30%. Its capacity-on-demand scalability lets it grow non-disruptively with users' data. And the Scalari500 is designed to integrate easily with disk backup making it the perfect library for next-generation backup architectures. With the Scalari500, IT managers can be assured they will have reliable, high-performance backup, certain restores, and effective long term protection for years into the future, no matter how their storage needs evolve.

The Scalari500 management features were designed with midrange backup needs in mind. Its user-friendly setup wizards make it simple to install. Its partitioning, remote monitoring, and automated diagnostics make it easy to operate and maintain. And its native support for Storage Resource Management (SRM) tools using the SMI-S interface standard means users can include Scalari500 libraries, even those in remote locations, within their managed storage environments along with their disk and fabric resources.

The Scalari500 offers industry-leading RAS features designed to meet the availability requirements of the most demanding midrange data centers. Hot swap drives are standard on all models. A full 2N power option protects the library and all drives from any single point of failure in the power system. The library's capacity-on-demand scalability provides non-disruptive growth, its flexible design makes it easy for users to add new modules, and its single, continuous robotics system provides fast, reliable cartridge transfer under the widest possible range of conditions.
