Best Cost of Ownership
	Embedded connectivity capability ensures that the NEO 8000e not only fits seamlessly into virtually any environment but also adapts to any changes in that environment, protecting your initial library investment for the long-haul. Features such as integrated partitioning let you multi-task with your NEO 8000e library, allocating each partition to a separate backup task or environment without requiring additional costly hardware. Consuming less power than other enterprise-class tape libraries, NEO 8000e improves energy efficiency by reducing cooling and power requirements. Designed for enterprise environments but delivering midrange simplicity, NEO 8000e’s simplified configuration and installation approach results in lower installation, maintenance and service costs, making NEO 8000e a wise storage investment.
Intelligent Management
	The NEO 8000e conveniently and intelligently manages the backup/archive process from anywhere in the world through a web-based remote management interface, reducing administrative costs and improving data availability. Features such as email alerts proactively identify potential issues with your backup/archive operation and provide diagnostic information used to isolate potential failures, reducing service costs and downtime associated with problem resolution.
High Data Availability
	Whether it’s robotic failover, redundant hot-swap power, high-performance tape drive management or advanced diagnostics capabilities, NEO 8000e eliminates single points of failure that can result in costly downtime. Unlike other midrange and enterprise libraries, NEO 8000e provides redundant robotics in scaled environments, ensuring that you have access to your data in the event of a robotic failure. Designed to meet the reliability, availability and serviceability needs of backup and archive operations in high-performance, high duty cycle data center environments, NEO 8000e provides a robust, reliable platform that ensures your data is automatically safe and always available.
Flexibility
	NEO 8000e’s innovative multi-module design lets you effortlessly customize your backup and archive solution as your data storage needs change. Starting with 100 cartridge slots and adding capacity in 80-slot increments lets you seamlessly add storage as you need it but does not require additional hardware or disruptive reconfiguration. Tape drive modules can also be added for increased performance capability. Once you’ve filled up your base NEO 8000e, simply add an additional NEO 8000e module for increased storage capacity and performance.
