Extend the value of an existing MSL tape library with a drive upgrade built for higher-capacity backup and controlled data retention. The HPE StoreEver MSL LTO-7 FC Drive Upgrade Kit provides 6 TB native capacity and up to 15 TB compressed capacity, giving storage teams more room per cartridge for backup sets, archive copies, and offsite rotation. Fibre Channel connectivity makes this kit a natural fit for tape libraries already anchored in SAN environments. Instead of reworking the backup architecture, teams can add capacity and maintain the operational model they already trust. Built-in encryption adds another layer of protection for data at rest on tape, which matters when media leaves the data center or enters long-term retention. This is the kind of upgrade that earns its place in enterprise infrastructure: it preserves the economics of tape while improving density, security, and integration. For organizations that need dependable archival storage without moving to a more expensive disk-only retention strategy, this drive kit keeps the tape library relevant and ready for larger backup demands.
