Manage ever-increasing amounts of complex and diverse data with the Archive Pro Ethernet LTO-8 Tape Storage/Archiving Solution from OWC / Other World Computing. Designed for long-term storage, you'll be able to protect and preserve huge volumes of data with drag-and-drop operations for longer periods and at a lower cost than disk-based storage. It features an LTO-8 tape drive with a native storage capacity of 12TB, dual 10GbE RJ45 SFP+ ports, and native read/write speeds up to 300 MB/s. Using 2.5:1 compression, LTO-8 tapes can store up to 30TB, while transfer speeds increase up to 750 MB/s. Also featured is backward compatibility with LTO-7 tapes, AES 256-bit encryption, and a Gigabit RJ45 maintenance port. Under normal environmental conditions, LTO tapes are built to last up to 30 years.The Solution for Your Growing Data Problem Whether you create volumes of data files or creative media projects, you face the daunting challenge of managing an ever-increasing amount of more complex data. Higher resolution, complex audio, and diverse formats are the project norm. Licensing, regulatory, and compliance requirements are becoming more stringent. The OWC Archive Pro Ethernet is the answer to content production growing 35% annually with 65% of it needing to be archived long-term. This easily integrated tape backup and archiving solution is a mission-critical requirement for protecting and preserving huge volumes of data with familiar drag-and-drop operation for longer periods and far lower cost than disk-based storage.Drag and Drop Easy Archiving The Archive Pro Ethernet uses archiving industry standard Linear Tape Open (LTO) tapes that can be formatted with the Linear Tape File System (LTFS) so you can access tapes just like a hard drive or SSD. Files appear in folders and moving them to/retrieving them from tape is drag-and-drop easy. Compatibility has never been simpler. Thanks to LTFS, LTO tapes can be read from a Mac, Windows, or Linux system so there's no proprietary hardware or software concerns.Separation Has Its Benefits With Ethernet as its primary interface to connect to the same network as your host device, you can place the Archive Pro Ethernet in a separate room or even a different building. Keeping the Archive Pro Ethernet separated from a host device gives you several key benefits: Enhanced Security - By placing your Archive Pro Ethernet in a secure, out-of-the-way location, you eliminate physical access to it. Plus, you can place it on a separate subnet or configure it so only authorized computers on the network can use it. Better Host Compatibility - The Archive Pro Ethernet works seamlessly with multiple servers over the network, even those without Thunderbolt ports. Forget specialized hardware - simply connect it to your existing systems. Less Noise - LTO drives can create distracting noise. By locating your Archive Pro Ethernet further away from you, you can enjoy a quieter work environment. Improved Multi-User Collaboration - While only one person can read or write to an LTO tape at a time, multiple users can access and utilize the Archive Pro Ethernet over the network. This means one Archive Pro Ethernet can be shared across an entire organization, saving you the hassle of moving it from desk to desk. Flexible and Future-Ready Because LTFS is an open, cross-platform system, and LTO tape is the dominant archiving medium that has continued to advance since being introduced in 2000, you can be confident knowing you'll be able to access your data with any brand of LTO hardware for decades to come. Whether you have an existing LTO tape archive or want to start archiving with the latest generation tape, you can configure the Archive Pro Ethernet to meet your data needs. LTO-8 drives will read and write to LTO-8 and LTO-7 tapes.An Ideal Solution for a Varity of Industries LTO Tape archiving is used by a wide variety of industries for diverse needs: Anyone seeking offsite data storage that is separated from the read/wr
