Product overview
The HPE StorageWorks 1/8 gen 2 LTO ultrium tape autoloader is supplied under part number LVLDC-0501. A tape drive is only as supportable as the HBA and the backup software behind it. Tell us the backup product and version and we will confirm the combination is supported.
If the part is wrong for your platform we will say so and suggest the one that is, which is cheaper for both of us than a return.

Questions buyers ask about this part
Is LVLDC-0501 genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in HPE packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will LVLDC-0501 work in my server?
Tell us the library, the backup software version and the oldest cartridge generation you still need to read. Tape reads back further than it writes, and the software support matrix matters as much as the hardware.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes. We quote against a purchase order and hold the price for the quote period, with tiered rates at quantity. Net terms are available once the account is approved.
