It is suited for media, entertainment, broadcasting and imaging applications because it provides a highly cost-effective means of storing large video files, managing workflow within the production environment and simplifying archiving tasks.

For Mac users, the tape drive delivers fast, portable backup and archiving when used with a FC-to-Thunderbolt bridge solution. 

The LTFS feature permits users to access and share large files of digital assets. For example, an hour of HD video (500GB) can be transferred in less than 50 minutes.

"LTO technology is known as the industry workhorse for affordable, reliable and robust data archiving and data preservation applications," said Graham Paterson, EMEA SVP, Tandberg Data.  "With Tandberg Data’s new LTO-6 HH FC external tape drive, even more users can take advantage of the technology, and Mac customers will especially appreciate the speed and portability of LTO tape for data transfer and off-site archival purposes."
