About

UK Shared Business Services Limited awarded a contract to Pangbourne Musical Distributors Limited for the purchase of 250 T10000KT2 tape data cartridges, valued at AUD 39,367.5.

The media are to be used in STFC's two 10,000-slot Oracle StorageTek SL8500 tape libraries, which store scientific data from sources such as the LHC experiment at CERN, the Diamond facility at RAL, and various satellite, laser, and atmospheric projects.

The cartridges must be read/write compatible with Oracle T10000KC or T10000KD tape drives, capable of storing 5TB native on the C drive or 8.5TB native on the D drive, and compatible with the STK SL8500 tape library.

The media are new and unused, un-initialised, and may be labelled before delivery.

All media must be sourced through appropriate Oracle tape media channels.

Acceptance criteria include random selection for read/write tests to verify data integrity and performance to manufacturer specifications.
