Archive to LTFS Tape

P5 Archive can read and write LTFS tapes and can import 3rd party LTFS tapes into the archive index. The LTFS format increases security and flexibility in media and video production. Archiving video files or all captured media on LTFS tape results in a cohesive archive that serves as the file memory of the company or a Single Source of Truth.
