Tape library

In computer storage, a tape library, sometimes called a tape silo, tape robot or tape jukebox, is a storage device which contains one or more tape drives, a number of slots to hold tape cartridges, a barcode reader to identify tape cartridges and an automated method for loading tapes (a robot).
One of the earliest examples was the IBM 3850 Mass Storage System (MSS), announced in 1974.
== Design ==

These devices can store immense amounts of data, currently ranging from 20 terabytes〔(HP StorageWorks MSL2024 Tape Library - Overview & features )〕 up to 2.1 exabytes of data〔Oracle 〕 or multiple thousand times the capacity of a typical hard drive and well in excess of capacities achievable with network attached storage. Typical entry-level solutions cost around $10,000 USD,〔(HP Small & Medium Business Online Store: HP StorageWorks MSL2024 Tape Libraries )〕 while high-end solutions can start at as much as $200,000 USD〔(). Cites cost as "From $195,830. (US)"〕 and cost well in excess of $1 million for a fully expanded and configured library.
For large data-storage, they are a cost-effective solution, with cost per gigabyte as low as 10 cents USD, or at least 60% less than most hard drives, and they also provide systematic access to very large quantities of data. The tradeoff for their larger capacity is their slower access time, which usually involves mechanical manipulation of tapes. Access to data in a library takes from several seconds to several minutes.
Because of their slow sequential access and huge capacity, tape libraries are primarily used for backups and as the final stage of digital archiving. A typical application of the latter would be an organization's extensive transaction record for legal or auditing purposes. Another example is hierarchical storage management (HSM), in which tape library is used to hold rarely used files from file systems.
