Quantum Corp. has chosen to announce its Scalar Linear Tape File System (LTFS) appliance at this week’s National Association of Broadcasters convention in Las Vegas. The Scalar LTFS appliance uses a self-describing file system and is intended to act as a gateway between a tape library supporting the Linear Tape Open (LTO) standard and network-attached storage (NAS), and provide the benefits of LTFS to library users as well as to users of standalone LTO drives.
