The First Certified Thunderbolt 3™ Tape Drive in the World!
Apple and Intel Certified for MAC and PC.
MagStor TRB3-HL8 Desktop LTO8 12TB LTFS Tape Drive with Thunderbolt™ 3 Interface
Overview
The MagStor TRB3-HL8 features an LTO8 tape drive with a 3.5" SATA HDD connected via a Thunderbolt™ 3 / USB-C port as a convenient connection to your desktop MAC or PC computer.
Taking advantage of LTFS (Linear Tape File System), users can easily drag and drop files to and from an LTO8 tape drive for 12TB of native capacity.
Thunderbolt™ 3 devices are fully backwards compatible with previous generations of Thunderbolt™ technology. We recommend the Apple MMEL2AM/A adapter with those using older Thunderbolt™ ports.
