Blu-ray jukebox sizes
The current available media for use in a Blu-ray jukebox is 25/50 or 100GB. The jukebox sizes can start from as little as 10 slots rising to 3,360 BD discs! Based on this a jukebox with 3,360 slots would hold 336TB’s. In fairness most people choose to purchase a 100 or 300 slot jukebox. For a complete list of specifications and models please call us regarding your requirement.
Reliability
A Blu-ray jukebox is the most reliable form of archival data storage technology currently available as the jukebox has a few moving parts and the media is not physically touched by the R/W head. Some of the jukeboxes can handle over 5,000,000 BD disc imports and before parts need replacing.
Requirements
A jukebox can be attached to a server or in most instances today sold as a complete standalone NAS with multiple shares created for archiving data. The jukebox software fully integrates with Windows Active Directory to control who can write data to the shared folders. When a pre-set flag is reached the data is automatically written to BD media.
