Symply PRO DIT Full Height Archiving Drive (LTO-9)

Description

Until now most LTO tape products were repurposed IT systems or design-compromised. With the introduction of SymplyPRO LTO that’s changed. SymplyPRO LTO was designed with creatives in mind. Comprising space-effective single desktop designs and innovative dual-drive desktop systems featuring Symply CableLess technology, making them highly serviceable and upgradeable, SymplyPRO LTO delivers more.

The Symply PRO DIT Full Height Archiving Drive is a unique full-featured archive and transfer system designed specifically for on-set and DIT use with features that can enhance every production and post-production pipeline. SymplyDIT LTO-XTF is based on our advanced desktop SymplyPRO LTO product line that features a rugged metal alloy enclosure and premium whisper-quiet fan and power supply technology, but benefits from unique multi-access technology that combines docking support for Atomos media along with any 2.5” SSD media for fast all-in-one DIT operations.

Unlike others, this is not a re-purposed LTO IT system or highly-design-compromised tape product. The SymplyDIT LTO-XTF was designed by working with media professionals and hearing their needs and wants. We took what they asked for, added high-quality components and SymplyDIT LTO-XTF was born. The flag-ship of the SymplyDIT LTO range, SymplyDIT LTO-XTF features a latest generation full-height LTO-9 tape drive providing staggering read/write speeds up to 400 MB/sec and includes two Thunderbolt 3 ports for device daisy chaining, with one port providing 60 watts for fast device charging. SAS Expansion and SAS host connectivity is also built-in, just in case you need to connected other SAS device(s) to your Thunderbolt computer, or use the device with a non-Thunderbolt workstation.

SymplyDIT LTO configurations feature Linear Tape File System (LTFS) support. Allowing simple drag and drop file operation similar to a conventional hard drive. LTFS can reduce the need for backup or archive software, and allows users to easily interchange data using LTO cartridges or copying data to and from hard disk drives or SSDs.
