Really basic stuff here, but I'm not as versed with ultra modern-backup/archival at the moment. I guess what I'm interested in is archival, but to leave that topic alone, effectively what I'm after is; - a single-loader LTO (ideally 6, acceptable 5) that can be compatible, and properly so with 10.8 MacOSX - IDEALLY thunderbolt, acceptably SAS and the iMac this is intended for will have an external PCI cardcage over thunderbolt - ability to support using TAPES as if they were any regular old FILESYSTEM Is LTFS really want I'm interested in? Or is it all just a bit more simple than that? I won't be needing software, I effectively want 1.6tb LTO tapes to run as if they were harddrives when they're loaded in the single loader. Cheers, DY |
