Archive. Verify. Find it again.

Create a searchable LTFS tape archive from one computer. SOLO combines tape writing, verification and restore in a perpetual license, with up to two standalone drives.

Bring your files to tape

Drag in folders, review the job and start. Stage files on an SSD or qualified hard drive, then stream to LTO. Source drives can be released after staging while tape writing continues. Write LTFS, span cartridges, or make two copies with two drives.

Check what you archived

Files receive checksums, then are read back after writing for verification. An MHL manifest stays on the cartridge. Drive and cartridge health checks run during jobs.

Find and restore files

Search the offline catalog even when cartridges are on a shelf. Locate the tape you need and restore selected files. Browsing and restoring remain available without an active license.

Supported platforms

Windows 10 / 11. Confirm that your tape drive, connection and drivers are compatible with your Windows configuration before installation.

macOS 11 or later. Confirm that your tape drive, connection and drivers are compatible with your Mac configuration before installation.

Ubuntu 24.04. Confirm that your tape drive, connection and drivers are compatible with your Linux configuration before installation.

One computer, up to two compatible standalone tape drives. Includes one year of support and software updates.

Optional SOLO Pro upgrade

More control for migration and automation

Add Pro to your SOLO license when your workflow needs more. The same license key is upgraded.

  • Plan and verify tape migration

    With two drives, migrate readable older cartridges to newer ones. Review the packing and compatibility plan first; source tapes stay read-only.

  • Connect your workflow

    Use the command line and local API for scripting and automation.

  • Stop and resume

    Stop a job and continue it later. Migration resumes from the last verified file.
