SymplyDIT LTO-XTH 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-XTH is based on our advanced desktop SymplyPRO LTO product line that features a rugged metal alloy enclosure and premium whisperquiet 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-XTH 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-XTH was born. Configurations are available with either LTO-7 or LTO-8 user removable tape drives built on SymplyCABLELESS technology for unrivalled serviceability and easy upgrade with read/write speeds up to 300 MB/sec per drive. Two Thunderbolt 3 ports are featured 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-XTH 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.
