Lund University Hospital has used digital technology for X-ray images. Instead of yards of storage shelves with X-ray images stored in the basement, the patients’ images and files are available on disk or tape and can be accessed directly from 120 workstations around the hospital. This requires smart storage and cost efficiency. Therefore, the hospital used the StorageTek concept of information lifecycle management (ILM). First, the X-rays are stored on the hospital's 1.7-terabyte redundant array of independent disks, and then they are automatically transferred to an easily accessible, tape storage system using a tape robot with T9840 tape drives.
