FOR-A Unveils LTO-5 High-Capacity, Tape-Based Video Storage Appliance At NAB 2012

FOR-A Unveils LTO-5 High-Capacity, Tape-Based Video Storage Appliance At NAB 2012:
(Fort Lee, New Jersey--April 2, 2012) Building on its successful line of LTO-5 video archiving recorders, FOR-A will introduce the LTS-50 storage appliance at the 2012 NAB Show in Las Vegas, April 16-19 (Booth C5219). Using a network connection, it archives media files to LTO-5 high-capacity tape, regardless of file format. The LTS-50 uses an LTFS (linear tape file system), which records video on tape as files and enables the reading and writing of files from a PC via FTP. It’s ideal for data backup that does not require video I/O, as well as archives of nonlinear editing materials that will be reused. Plus, it can create original and duplicate copies with the installation of an external LTO drive. The LTS-50 can be controlled through FOR-A’s optional LTR Browser software, and another optional proxy generator can be configured to automatically create low-resolution proxy files and thumbnails when archiving MXF files.
