MagStor tape drives are made with only the best components; including LTO tape drives made in Japan, and enclosures engineered for exceptional longevity.   You expect your drive to work the first time, and we do too.  Our LTO drives are tested at our factory to the highest standard, not once, but twice, as we test the drives again once they've been assembled into a complete product.   Using LTO tape for backup or archive is cost-effective, Eco-friendly, and safe from online attackers, all while taking advantage of LTO tape's 30-year shelf life.   LTFS (Linear Tape File System) makes Archiving to tape now easier than ever. Users can easily drag and drop files to and from an LTO tape with the peace of mind that LTFS is open source and you can access your files in the future no matter what software you choose. Traditional backups to tape are still commonplace with TAR software.  MagStor LTO drives are compatible with any TAR backup system that works with IBM-based tape drives.   Features: Capacity (Native) 18TB Read/Write Speeds (Native) 400 MB/s  12G SAS with SFF-8644 Interface LTFS Compatible Drag & Drop TAR Compatible  30 Year LTO Media Archive Life  Built-in PSU, no bulky adapters needed TAA Compliant  3 Year Warranty (Upgrade to 5 Years US/CAN)   Technical Specifications Interface: External SAS SFF-8644 Tape Drive: LTO9 Tape drive with up to 400 MB/sec native transfer rate  Data Cartridge: Read/Write LTO9 data cartridge; 18TB native storage capacity Read/Write LTO8 data cartridge; 12TB native storage capacity  Power Supply: ☑ No power brick - Internal 100/240 VAC 50/60 Hz Auto-sensing Dimensions & Weight: 13.4 x 5.8 x 6.8 inches (L x H x W) / 13 lbs  Software Compatibility: IBM Spectrum Archive Single Drive Edition (Linux,MAC) PreRollPost myLTO YoYotta LTFS Hedge / Canister Third-Party LTFS-enhanced archive/backup software Third-Party TAR based backup software Any software that fully supports IBM LTO Tape Drives System Requirements: Non-RAID 12G SAS HBA LTFS will require a TLR-enabled 12G SAS HBA   MagStor SAS-L9-8644 Includes:  MagStor LTO9 FH SAS External Desktop Tape Drive US Power Cable 2 Meter SFF8644-SFF8644 Mini SAS Cable  Download MagStor LTO SAS Drive Brochure
