A TeraPack holds ten tapes, which increases the density of the tape storage, which the company claims simplifies the loading and unloading of the tapes from the library. The Spectra T950 tape library stores media tapes in the tape library bundled in trays called TeraPacks. Active archive is a method of tiered storage which gives users access to data across a virtualized file-system that migrates data between multiple storage systems. Spectra Logic is a founding member of the Active Archive Alliance. The TFinity tape libraries will be able to store hundreds of petabytes of data and will be one of the world's largest active file repositories. Also that month, Spectra Logic announced that it would provide Spectra TFinity tape libraries to the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) for their Blue Waters supercomputing system. Only the Spectra Logic TFinity and T950 received the highest "Best-in-Class" ranking.

Spectra introduced its TFinity tape library in November 2009, offering 99.9% reliability and scaling to 180 petabytes of storage capacity in an LTO-5 configuration. Spectra Logic produced another first when it released a tape library with integrated hardware-based data encryption. The company became the first to automate Advanced Intelligent Tape (AIT) magnetic tape in a robotic autoloader ( tape library), and was also the first tape-library vendor to implement the iSCSI networking protocol in its products. As of 2016 Thompson is the chairman and CEO of the company. Thompson founded Spectra Logic in his apartment in 1979 while he was an engineering student at the University of Colorado at Boulder.
