IBM TS3100 and TS3200 Tape Libraries for Lenovo
Product Guide (withdrawn product)
IBM TS3100 and TS3200 Tape Libraries for Lenovo (Machine Type 6173) combine IBM tape and automation
reliability at a cost effective price. Both libraries support entry-level, unattended backup, open system
attachment flexibility, and enhanced capacity and performance.
The TS3100 is a 2U rack mount library that can accommodate up to two Ultrium half-high tape drives or one
Ultrium full-high tape drive with 24 cartridge slots in two removable magazines, including a standard one-
cartridge I/O station, a remote management unit, and a barcode reader.
The TS3200 is a 4U rack mount library that can accommodate up to four Ultrium half-high tape drives or two
Ultrium full-high tape drives with 48 data cartridge slots in four removable magazines, including a standard
three-cartridge I/O station, a remote management unit, and a barcode reader.
The choice of the tape drives for the TS3100 and TS3200 tape libraries includes IBM LTO Ultrium 7, Ultrium
6, and Ultrium 5 Half High (HH) and Full High (FH) tape drives with SAS or Fibre Channel host connectivity
interfaces.
The TS3100 and TS3200 are ideal solutions if you need an entry-level larger capacity or higher performance
tape backup with or without random access. These libraries are excellent choices for tape automation for
Lenovo servers.
The TS3100 Tape Library is shown in the following figure.

Did you know?
Featuring the latest LTO Ultrium 7 technology, the TS3100 and TS3200 Tape Libraries provide up to 360 TB
and 720 TB of 2.5:1 compressed backup storage, respectively.
With IBM LTO Tape offerings that are available from Lenovo, Lenovo can be your trusted partner that offers
"one stop shop" and single point of contact for delivery of leading edge technologies and innovations from
Lenovo and other leading IT vendors to satisfy the wide range of your end-to-end IT infrastructure needs,
including handheld devices, notebooks, personal computers, servers, storage, networking, services,
management software, and financing.

Key features
The TS3100 and TS3200 deliver the following features:
Entry-level tape libraries that are designed for high capacity, high performance, and high reliability.
Adherence to LTO specifications.
Support for half-high or full-high LTO Ultrium 7, Ultrium 6, or Ultrium 5 tape drives with SAS or Fibre
Channel interfaces.
Support for one full-high or up to two half-high tape drives in the TS3100; support for up to two full-
high, or up to four half-high, or a combination of one full-high and up to two half-high tape drives in the
TS3200.
Native data transfer rate of up to 300 MB/s (Ultrium 7), up to 160 MB/s (Ultrium 6), or up to 140 MB/s
(Ultrium 5).
Native cartridge capacity of up to 6 TB (Ultrium 7), up to 2.5 TB (Ultrium 6), or up to 1.5 TB
(Ultrium 5).
Two (TS3100) or four (TS3200) removable magazine that can house up to 12 data cartridges to
enable quick population of the tape library and ease the storage needs for media.
A 1-slot I/O station (TS3100) or a 3-slot I/O station (TS3200) to help support continuous library
operations, while importing and exporting media with little or no disruption to library operation.
A standard bar code reader with which you can operate the TS3100 or TS3200 in sequential or
random access mode.
Mixed media support, including IBM LTO Ultrium 7, 6, and 5 WORM (Write Once Read Many) media.
Remote management capabilities to allow for remote administration of the TS3100 and TS3200
through a web interface.
Multi-path feature to allow sharing of the library robotics across heterogeneous applications
independently of each other. The library can be partitioned into up to four logical libraries (each
partition must have at least one drive). It also can provide each logical library its own separate and
distinct drives, storage slots, and control paths.
Optional System Managed and Library Managed Encryption on LTO Ultrium 7, Ultrium 6,
and Ultrium 5 tape drives with a Transparent LTO Encryption feature.
Optional Path Failover that enables the host device driver to transparently switch to an alternative
path if there is a communication path failure to the application.
An optional rack mount kit, an extra power supply for the TS3200 and more cartridge magazines.
3 Gb or 6 Gbps SAS, or 4 Gb or 8 Gb Fibre Channel attachments for connection to select Lenovo
servers that run Microsoft Windows and Linux server operating systems.
Support from an extensive ecosystem of backup software vendors.
