MYLTO FOR MAC

EASY LTFS COPY APPLICATION


myLTO® for Mac

myLTO® for Mac is an automated copy utility application geared toward media files. The software takes advantage of the Linear File Transfer System (LTFS), developed by IBM and supported by HP, Quantum, Tandberg and other tape drive manufacturers.
LTFS mounts a tape as a user defined read/write volume within the computer’s operating system. This makes it possible to write and read from the tape as if it were a disk and save files in their original format. It also makes myLTO hardware independent—you can use it with any Ultrium® LTFS compliant tape drive (e.g. LTO-7, LTO-8, LTO-9).

With myLTO, you can easily create LTFS compliant archives across multiple hard disks or LTO tapes simultaneously, utilizing custom folder naming and user-defined verification types in Preset Mode.

Tape Index & Caching functionality eliminates the need to mount and spin your tape by loading an index each time a new tape is detected. This allows you to easily view and retrieve your tape's contents, while Optimized Retrieval minimizes unnecessary "shoe-shining" by fetching the requested information in a single pass.
In Simple Mode, you can perform jobs with utmost simplicity. Just drag and drop your desired locations and destinations, and myLTO takes care of the rest. With advanced auto-mounting and unmounting capabilities, your archiving process becomes seamless from start to finish.

Say goodbye to cumbersome LTFS terminal interaction with Hassle-free Tape Commands. Gain swift visibility into your device information and execute essential tape commands such as Mount, Format, Recover,  and Eject directly through myLTO.

myLTO Check-in simplifies your workflow by checking all the necessary tools needed to
kickstart your deck. Bundled LTFS eliminates the need to navigate complicated procedures for downloading and installing manufacturer drivers, enhancing convenience and efficiency.
Job History allows you to access and browse past jobs effortlessly. Seamlessly explore
metadata and media information, and generate reports if needed. Aggregate Reporting takes it a step further, empowering you to generate custom reports based on specific job ranges or selections, facilitating collaboration and effective communication across your team.
Generate comprehensive PDF reports with ease, providing a snapshot overview of your
completed archive. Verify the accuracy of copied data at a glance and quickly share these user-friendly reports with others.
