The library is expandable with expansion modules and tape drives. Installations begin with a 3U base module, expandable with up to six 3U expansion modules. It is compatible with most operating systems, but requires direct OS or backup application support. Verify compatibility at http://hpe.com/storage/DAPRcompatibility.
