related server spend growing 3x average

Collaborative software workloads growing 10%

CAGR

Last 10 years servers up 2X and virtual machines up 42% CAGR

To realize the promise of a Smarter Planet, enterprises must address the IT challenges that have emerged


Storage Budget

IBM Storage is key to Smarter Computing

Storage Efficiency is essential to outpace data

growth

Storage Virtualization enables a robust cloud deployment

Designed for data


Introducing IBM Smarter Storage for Smarter Computing

Increase information access and improve ROI

Manage cost and capacity growth

Improve performance and

productivity


Tape Storage is designed for efficiency

Tape technology is the most power efficient storage, reducing energy consumption by up to 100x (compared to HDD). 1

Protects vital customer’s information on tape with data encryption and WORM capabilities

Cartridge portability enables easy off site storage of data for disaster recovery

Delivers significant cost reduction in energy, space and people costs for management

and support.

Provides the performance to meet today's and future requirements.

Tape media has a long life for reliable long term storage

Provides investment protection with scalability and media compatibility

LDI / ADI Auto Detect Can automatically detect the library interface protocol

LED indicating encryption (HH)

Indicates when data is being encrypted or an encrypted data cartridge is mounted

Giant Magneto Resistive Heads

Advanced high gain head with beveled contouring for

reducing stiction/friction. Has advanced head coating to prevent corrosion and extend life

Data Safe Mode Mode setting to write protect R/W media (logical WORM)1024 MB buffer size Increased from 512MB to properly cache higher data rateFlangeless rollers (FH) Helps minimize tape edge damage, and debris buildup, by elimination of

the roller flangesSkew Actuator (FH) Allows dynamic skew adjustment of the head to keep head perpendicular to

tape (needed in a flangeless tape path)More speed matching speeds Speed matching with more speeds (14, up from 7) to help minimize back-

hitching and enhance performanceNoise-Predictive

Maximum Likelihood

Adaptive read channel detection to help optimize detection performance and improve error rate
