mTape is the first standalone LTO-6 tape drive to feature
Thunderbolt connectivity and is the ideal backup and archiving solution for
users of laptops and all-in-one computers. LTO tape offers the lowest cost per
terabyte of any storage medium and more importantly has an archival life of 30
plus years - longer than any external HDD sitting on a shelf. The new mLink 2
expansion chassis featuring 20Gb/s Thunderbolt 2 technology is the industry's
smallest and most affordable system to support add-in cards up to 3/4 length and
full-height.
Thunderbolt delivers unparalleled performance, flexibility and
simplicity to personal computing. Products from mLogic such as mTape and
the mLink 2 help highlight what Thunderbolt makes possible.
