          Description
              The NCSA Granite Tape Archive is architected using a 19-frame Spectra TFinity tape library outfitted with 20 LTO-9 tape drives to enable a total capacity of over 170PB of accessible and replicated data, of which 3.6PB is currently available for ACCESS allocations. The additional capacity is reserved for other NCSA use, and additional space is still available to expand the archive when needed. The archive operates on Versity's ScoutAM/ScoutFS products giving users a single archive namespace from which to stage data in and out. Access to the Granite system is available directly via Globus and S3 tools.
