Introduction
Sony
AIT Turbo widens the AIT familys reach
and provides greater flexibility, performance
and value. AIT Turbo drives offer an entry
level, as well as, multiple migration drive
options with enhanced capacity and performance
for DDS, DAT72 and VXA2 users. The concept
is simple, more capacity and performance for
less.
Features
- Capacity
: Up to 80 GB4 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.
- Performance
: Sustained data transfer rate of 12 MB/s
native provides high performance for today's
most demanding environments - backup up
to 43.2 GB4/hour native.
- AME
Media : Extremely durable Advanced Metal
Evaporated (AME) media - provides extraordinary
reliability and a virtually contamination-free
environment reducing the need for periodic
cleaning.
- Data
Access : 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.
- Reduced
Periodic Maintenance : Super Head Cleaner
provides an automated cleaning solution
- increases head life and reduces the need
for periodic cleaning.
- Compression
: Adaptive Lossless Data Compression (ALDC)
provides greater data compression efficiency
- offers average compression of 2.6:1.
- Reliability
: 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 : : Read-and-write backward
compatibility - provides investment protection.
