description A data storage system for remote access to stored data. The innovative system uses a storage library to contain magnetic hard disks (for example) and automatically replaces the hard disks upon failure, without human intervention. Failed disks are removed from the library by a robot, deposited from the library, upon which time they are further processed for delivery to the manufacturer, for example, or for disposal. Replacement disk drives are accessed by the robot from within the library to replace the removed storage element. The system's robot is capable of not only moving individual storage elements, but also of moving the access cables connecting the storage elements to the external network. Using this capability, the number of access cables is reduced without requiring added human intervention.
