Compatibility
Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s extensive compatibility testing program assures that your HPE MSL Tape Libraries work with leading servers, operating systems, and backup software applications – and not just those sold by Hewlett Packard Enterprise. The MSL libraries work seamlessly in many environments, making them especially suitable if you have a mixed system environment. For the complete and latest list of servers, workstations, operating systems, and backup software that support the MSL tape libraries, reference the HPE StoreEver Compatibility Matrix (Formerly EBS) at: HPE Storage Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge – SPOCK

| HPE MSL3040 Scalable Base Module | Q6Q62C | |||||||||||||||
| Notes:
– This product is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant. – The base module is 3U rack mountable. – Base module enables 40 slots – Standard power supply is included with the base module. – Redundant power supply is not included as standard, if required it needs to be added to the order. This needs to be factory integrated, #0D1, in order to be TAA compliant. Redundant power supply is hot-swappable. – It does not contain any tape drives, up to 3 HH tape drives may be added to the base module – MSL3040 rack-rail extends between approximately 683 and 900mm (between 68.3 and 90 cm). |
