This allows the LTO tape to behave much like a hard drive for high performance video ap- plications such as NLEs and transcoders. With myLTOdna users can streamline workflows: Write directly to tape in the field and use that tape as the source for production editing. And there's no need to archive when the project's complete — it's already on an LTO tape.
