Over the decades since its inception in 1958, CCTV has accumulated a substantial inventory of video programs and related raw materials. In particular, the news programs and related materials are highly valuable. As time goes by, it is increasingly urgent to archive and protect these valuable assets. Due to limitations in storage life, storage quality, storage resources management, and access sharing, however, the conventional analog technology has fallen far short of CCTV's requirements. It became obvious to the company that that a Nearline system consisting of tape libraries and relevant application software would be the best solution to their problems. CCTV chose StorageTek, and for this project, StorageTek used Nearline PowderHorn 9310 tape library, and five T9840B tape drives and five T9940B tape drives.
