Symply SymplyPRO XTF Thunderbolt 3 LTO-10 Full Height Tape Storage

Housed in a rugged metal alloy enclosure, this full-height LTO drive delivers maximum capacity and speed for demanding workflows. It features a premium cooling system, reliable power supply, and dual Thunderbolt 3 ports for daisy chaining and fast charging. Built for professionals who need high-performance backup and archiving in a compact, desktop design.

SymplyPRO Thunderbolt is built with creatives in mind. Unlike re-purposed IT boxes, these desktop systems are designed from the ground up for studio, on-set, and lab use, delivering years of reliable, trouble-free service. Featuring a compact, robust all-metal design that's simple, affordable and energy-efficient. Every enclosure integrates a premium PSU and cooling fan. All dual-drive desktop models use our SymplyCABLELESS architecture for fast serviceability and easy upgrades.

Each model comes equipped with two Thunderbolt 3 ports that support daisy-chaining, with one port delivering 60W of power for device charging.

Every SymplyPRO Thunderbolt configuration supports Linear Tape File System (LTFS), enabling familiar drag-and-drop file operations and simple interchange without heavy backup software. It's also compatible with leading backup and archive applications that support LTO-media-focused tools such as Archiware P5, Hedge Canister, YoYotta, and XenData; plus broader IT platforms including Veeam Backup & Replication, Veritas NetBackup, Commvault, IBM Spectrum Protect, Arcserve, Retrospect, and the open-source Bacula and Bareos.

On Windows and Linux, SymplyPRO Thunderbolt integrates with standard platform tools and LTO software stacks (e.g., IBM tape drivers, IBM Spectrum Archive LTFS, and ITDT diagnostics). On macOS, SymplyATOM provides streamlined tape operations-format, mount/eject LTFS, one-click diagnostics and log capture, and in-app firmware updates for SymplyPRO drives. This ensures straightforward deployment in mixed environment.

SymplyCABLELESS
All Symply dual-drive desktop systems feature SymplyCABLELESS technology, a unique design that makes LTO drives quick and easy to remove, service, or upgrade. Start with a single LTO drive and add a second in seconds-without ever powering down the system. Upgrading to the next LTO generation is just as simple.

In the unlikely event of a drive issue, the affected drive can be removed and replaced without shutting down the entire unit, and only the failed drive needs to be returned for service. Simple, flexible, and designed for maximum uptime-exactly what you'd expect from Symply.
