BRU LE Supported Devices

Unlike competitive products that require specialized device drivers for each supported tape drive or library, BRU's device independent I/O layer allows it to natively support all SCSI, Fibre-Channel, Firewire, and USB tape drives and SCSI/Fibre Channel tape libraries.

Following is a sampling of tape drives and libraries that have been BRU for Mac OS X tested under OS X 10.2 and 10.3. If you are curious about a particular device not listed, please contact our sales or support team

Autoloaders/Libraries
Please contact brusales@tolisgroup.com if you have questions about your device.

BRU LE supports autoloaders with a maximum of ten (10) total slots and one (1) drive. BRU LE will not work with autoloaders that do not meet these limits.

If you have an autoloader above these limits, please see our BRU Server product.
