## Long description

HP MSL2024 is a compact 2U tape autoloader/library configured with one LTO-8 SAS drive and 15 LTO-8 tape cartridges. It provides offline, removable-media storage that supports backup, recovery and long-term retention workflows for servers and small SAN environments. The unit uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface and delivers native sustained transfer performance up to 300 MB/s with an interface data rate up to 6 Gbit/s. The MSL2024 integrates hardware-based data encryption, automated tape handling and web-based management for straightforward deployment and operational control.
Advantages
The HP MSL2024 combines high-capacity LTO-8 media with automated loading to reduce manual intervention and lower operational overhead. Native sustained throughput and support for LTO Ultrium compression provide increased effective capacity for long-term archives while keeping data offline and air-gapped to help protect against ransomware and accidental deletion. The compact 2U form factor and simple web management allow installation in constrained rack space, and added multi-factor authentication (MFA) support enhances secure library administration.
