Quantum LTO3 A-Series Standalone Drive

The LTO-3 A-Series feature set makes the drive MXF-aware which permits video tape-like access to subclips by timecode and provides an unprecedented level of interoperability between applications and environments.

With its built-in Gigabit Ethernet port, the LTO-3 A-Series is a network-attached device so it can be directly connected to any network and accessed by every edit workstation, networked server, graphics devices, or other computer based video equipment on the network.

Because it uses LTO Ultrium 3 tape, the LTO-3 A-Series delivers a 30-year tape archive life to protect professional video, audio and data assets better than any video tape backup. Each cartridge holds 400GB of information and allows faster-than-real-time transfer rates of up to 544 Mb/sec. And, because each LTO Ultruim 3 tape contains key MXF metadata in a tape-based file directory, your media is transportable and exchangeable for seamless application independence.
