Development Partners Catalog-Storage Connectivity

ATTO Technology provides solutions to Digidesign customers that allow them to manage massive amounts of digital content more efficiently to achieve high quality sound for music and post production. As a Digidesign Development Partner, ATTO is committed to providing audio professionals with efficient solutions that are compatible with Digidesign technology.

Storage Connectivity Solutions

ATTO host adapters offer a combination of high-performance streaming application connectivity solutions to a wide variety of storage interfaces, allowing for collaboration on audio projects from multiple ediiting workstations, network management or simple connectivity to direct-attached SAS/SATA and SCSI storage or advanced Fibre Channel networks.

Data Protection Management and Collaborative Workflows

ATTO FastStream™ Storage Controllers integrate RAID and data management functionality into storage environments for blazing-fast access to digital content. The FastStream SC 5700 and the FastStream SC 5300 add Storage Area Network (SAN) functionality to Fibre Channel and SCSI storage, respectively. Whether adding parity RAID protection to audio production environments or managing latency to support multiple track editing, ATTO's FastStream Storage Controller delivers unparalleled performance.

Remote Connectivity High Sampling Rates and HD Audio Support

The ATTO iPBridge™ helps your current workflow keep pace with high-definition audio technology as used in Pro Tools|HD. By allowing a networked solution that supports all track counts with sampling rates up to
192 kHz, the iPbridge line allows audio engineers to configure virtual track layouts and use many more effects to speed workflow. By providing an alternative to FireWire drives, ATTO iPBridges open up an opportunity for RAID Redundancy (when used with FastStream) as well as using native hardware on a Macintosh® or PC for Ethernet connectivity of attached storage. When used in conjunction with ATTO's Xtend SAN iSCSI Initiator Software for Macintosh (which converts any Ethernet port on the Mac to an iSCSI port) connection to the iPBridge or any iSCSI device can be achieved. (See Advanced Audio Success Story.)
