Product Description

The Optical Disc Archive ODS-L10 is a compact robotic library that contains slots for ten cartridges and two ODS-D55U or ODS-D77U drives. Suitable for various applications, it is specifically designed for those with small- to medium-scale production systems, where digital media assets are managed by several users. When combined with Sony’s File Manager Software, the library is ideal for network-attached storage. It provides up to 15 Terabytes, roughly 500 hours of 4:2:2 high definition, in a form factor that sits on a desktop or mounts in a standard 19-inch rack.You can organize the ten cartridges by project, by client or by the operator. The storage capacity is in effect unlimited. As cartridges fill up, you move them to shelves for easy management. High reliability is achieved with incredibly durable optical discs, and it is as easy to use as conventional external storage devices. Additionally, as it employs removable media and as you can archive rarely accessed data on shelves, you need not worry about exceeding storage capacity limits. With all these qualities, this mini robotic library makes shelf-based archive management easier and more efficient.
