Overland-Tandberg NEOxl 40 3U LTO-7 and LTO-8 Library

With 5 mail-slots and 32 media slots, and up to 960TB in base module

Overland-Tandberg announced the availability of its NEOxl 40 tape automation library which meets the form factor requirements for smaller video production facilities, while providing increased capacity, performance and the ability to grow at scale.

It integrates with the high-capacity, flexible, archive product, NEO Agility LTFS solution, and simplifies the digital media archive workflow at a fraction of the cost of traditional disk storage solutions.

According to a May 2017 survey and report from Forbes magazine and Coughlin Associates , most digital media production customers are experiencing rapid growth in the need to store their digital media content, adding over 1,000 hours a year to their video archives. The report also highlights over the last five years there's been an 8x increase in the amount of content being generated per every two-hour cinematic piece. As an example, the Avatar Motion Picture used 1PB of storage, with average film archives requiring at least 250TB of storage.

The NEOxl 40 satisfies the demand for cost effective long-term archive storage, at a cost of <$.01/GB. This represents over 80% savings compared to disk-based and cloud-based archive solutions. The solution also scales in both capacity and performance to accommodate changing data archive needs. Also, when used with the NEO Agility LTFS solution, NEOxl 40 provides media and entertainment users with high-speed access of up to nearly 1PB of content.

Overland-Tandberg's NEO XL-Series is the perfect solution to support the specialized and integrated workflow requirements for our media and entertainment customers. The Overland-Tandberg solution is easy-to-use and affordable and can quite readily handle massive amounts of video content associated with long-term archive with the speed and reliability.
