Sony's new AIT-1 Turbo drives are based on the field-proven, highdensity,
high-performance AIT tape technology.
Performance and
capacity improvements provide a supercharged tape drive for the
low end market, while providing aggressive lowered pricing to
address cost sensitive budgets. AIT – A hallmark of Sony’s
commitment to technological excellence.
- Up to 40 GB native storage capacity, or 104 GB compressed (2.6:1) in a compact, 3.5", half-height
form-factor – store more information in less space.
- Sustained data transfer rate of 6 MB/s native provides high performance backups – up to 21.6 GB/hour
native.
- Super Head Cleaner™ provides an automated cleaning solution – increases head life and reduces the
need for periodic cleaning.
- Adaptive Lossless Data Compression (ALDC) provides greater data compression efficiency – offers
average compression of 2.6:1.
- Helical scan recording writes the tape in one pass with a slow tape speed and allows higher recording
densities than linear recording – reduces wear-and-tear on the data cartridge and drive, increasing
reliability, head life, and storage capacity within a compact form-factor.
- Backward compatibility with standard AIT-1 – provides investment protection.
