Product Details

Most LTO tape systems were just repurposed IT hardware—generic, underpowered, and built with budget parts. SymplyPRO Rackmount SAS LTO changes everything. Designed specifically for media professionals, it delivers true performance, reliability, and serviceability in a sleek 1RU or 2RU form factor.

Featuring innovative single and dual-drive configurations with Symply CableLess technology, it’s easy to service and upgrade. Housed in a durable metal alloy chassis, it includes dual fans, a premium power supply, and high-speed SFF-8088 or SFF-8644 SAS ports—depending on the LTO generation.

With full LTFS support, SymplyPRO SAS ensures your data is secure, open-format, and easy to share or migrate—making it the perfect fit for demanding archive and backup workflows.
