The TLS-8000 family comprises six models, providing a broad range of cost-effective solutions. Housing one to eight LTO Ultrium technology tape drives and up to 264 tapes. TLS 8000 multi-drive library models readily support concurrent reading and writing at data transfer rates exceeding 6.9 Terabytes per hour to meet the throughput needs of today's rapidly-growing networks.
Direct Fiber Attach (DFA) LTO drives connect each drive to maximize SAN performance.

All TLS 8000 libraries include Q-Link, Qualstar's web browser accessed remote library manager that enables administrators to configure, upgrade, and monitor any TLS-Series tape library via a company intranet or over the internet from anywhere in the world. Q-Link extends the library's comprehensive front panel menu system and adds additional functionality such as automatic e-mail notification based on rules set by the administrator, and firmware updates can be implemented remotely.

Developed for the RLS-Series libraries, VIOP is now incorporated in every TLS model. An exclusive Qualstar design feature, VIOP, Variable I/O Port, allows users to match the number of I/O slots to their operational requirements. Applications are not constrained by limits imposed by libraries with a fixed number of I/O slots. Users can assign the number of slots to best match their requirements. VIOP compliments the hardware I/O Ports which continue to be included or available in all models.

Logical Library is built into every TLS-Series SCSI library. It allows up to four servers to share a single library via a SCSI interface, even if each server is running a separate application. Systems that you couldn't afford to upgrade can now be protected automatically. Support for multiple SCSI busses is also built-in to maximize throughput in direct-attach architectures.
The TLS-8000 Series also offers barcode scanning and an I/O Port for importing and exporting individual tapes under application control.

Qualstar is known worldwide for quality and reliability. All electrical and mechanical adjustments have been eliminated for easy installation and enhanced reliability. Tape drive reliability is improved by providing individual fans for each Ultrium drive to insure proper cooling. Filtered, positive air pressure is maintained throughout the library to reduce contamination.
Providing built-in capacity and performance growth is a hallmark of all Qualstar TLS-Series automation families. All drive bays are pre-wired: users can easily install additional tape drives for increased throughput. Field upgrade kits are also available to double the tape capacity of some models.

Founded in 1984, Qualstar has been designing and manufacturing tape automation products since 1994. Offering 30 models for AIT, SDLT and LTO Ultrium formats, our TLS-Series families consistently set industry standards for quality, performance and value

The Qualstar TLS 800O comes with a 1 year 5x9xNext Business Day On Site Service and a 1 year factory warranty. For configuration options, pricing and availability please allow DSS, Inc. to put together a detailed solution, designed to meet your project criteria and earn your business.
