RE: [Avid-L2] LTO Software

If it's a discovery network, you want PreRollPost from Imagine products,
hands down. The software has a 'discovery mode.' They also make an LTO
drive that's thunderbolt... though I guess that doesn't help with a
macpro tower.

We bought our HP drive, ATTO Card, and software from MAXX Digital - Bob
Zelin consults and contracts for them, and helped me setup our Mac
Server system (graphics and delivery LAN, not video server,) which also
acts as our archive workstation. mattstone@maxxdigital.com or
ron@maxxdigital.com The best thing about these guys is they a true VAR
- I get very personal service from them, and they've always been honest
and acted like a partner. (Rant mode: Sorry to sound like an advert,
but I'm kinda sick of mediocre service and response from companies to
whom I've given tens-of-thousands to over the years. It's always a
struggle to find the balance between 'bulk shippers' like B&H and
resellers who actually DO add value - Maxx is the exception, and I like
doing business with Ron and his guys.)

I would definitely use an LTO-6 drive, which should also write LTO-5
(ours does,) given that LTO-5 is already outdated.
