Each library includes two removable 12-slot magazines, and one user-configurable mail slot dedicated for import/export of data cartridges. A barcode reader is part of the standard configuration for facilitating media management. All HP StorageWorks MSL2024 Tape Library units arrive rack-ready for installation in a standard 19" rack, but can be converted into a tabletop configuration for use outside of a rack.
