The HPE Storage MSL6480 Tape Library delivers high-capacity, enterprise-class data protection with modular scalability and exceptional cost efficiency. Designed for organizations with rapidly growing backup, archive, and compliance requirements, it expands from 6U in a single base module to 42U with expansion modules. The MSL6480 enhances cyber resilience with integrated encryption, multifactor authentication (MFA), and MSL vault partition, isolating media without the need to remove cartridges from the tape library. Simplified management, flexible partitioning, and broad host compatibility streamline deployment across diverse environments. With reliable LTO performance, long-term media durability, and low total cost of ownership (TCO), the MSL6480 delivers a scalable, secure, and economical solution for modern data retention strategies.

What is new supporting point:
MSL vault partition maintains secure storage area inside the library, isolated from drives and invisible to applications, preventing any intentional or accidental access.
MFA enables organizations to enforce two-factor identity verification before library access is granted.
