Sony's AIT-2 Turbo drives provide the best of both worlds—high
capacity, high performance, and economical pricing. In addition,
AIT-2 Turbo offers unique advantages to the low end to midrange
tape backup users. AIT-2 Turbo provides all of the same features
and benefits that field-proven AIT format has come to be known
for, such as the compact form-factor, Advanced Metal Evaporated
(AME) media, Memory-in-Cassette (optional), and ALDC
compression technology.
- Up to 80 GB native storage capacity, or 208 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 12 MB/s native provides high performance for today's most
demanding environments – backup up to 43.2 GB/hour native.
- Extremely durable Advanced Metal Evaporated (AME) media – provides extraordinary reliability
and a virtually contamination-free environment reducing the need for periodic cleaning.
- Optional Memory-In-Cassette, a 64-kbit memory chip built into the data cartridge, offers
sophisticated data access capability – providing high speed file location and file access.
- Super Head Cleaner™ mechanism provides an automated cleaning solution – increases data
integrity 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 – reduces wear-andtear
on the tape media and drive, increasing reliability.
- Read-and-write backward compatibility – provides investment protection.
