Unprecedented Performance Of Sony AIT-i1040SLE AIT-5 Tape Drive
Sony is famous for its technical expertise and high quality consumer electronics and media sorage products. Sony has developed AIT advanced intelliugent tape media technology to meet the storage needs of its cutsomers in a cost effective manner. Sony AIT-i1040SLE is a high speed SCSI internal tape drive, wich represents the AIT-5 media tape technology. Sony AIT-5 tape driuve can record native 400GB data on AIT 5 tape carytridge. Data security level of AIT-5 tape format has been raised by Sony with the emplooyment of WORM (write once read many) mechanism. Sony AIT-i1040SLE SCSI drive features high speed data rate of 24MB/s.
High seed Sony AIT-5 tape media cartridges and drives are the foremmost choice of the enterprises. Sony AIT5 drives are idealy engineered for grater read/write reliaiblity, low cost baclkup operations and unparallleed performance. Sony SDX5-400W is a WORM enabld AIT-5 data tape, and the Sony SDX5-400C tape does not have the WORM cpability. Sony AIT-i1040SLE AIT5 is the best tape drive which secures your I.T investments. With the depolyment of Sony AIT-5 drie, you can also use the backup media tapews of AIT-3EX, AIT3 and AIT-4. The backward compatibility includes both data read/write capability includfing the previous three AIT generations. The backward compatible AIT tapes are listed below:
Sony AIT-3, SDX3-100C backup tape
Sony AIT3, SDX3-100W data tape
Sony AIT-3EX, SDX3X150CWW tape
Sony AIT-4, SDX4200CWW tape
Sony AIT4, SDX4-200C media tape
Sony AIT-4, SDX4200WWW tape
High performance AIT-5 tape format compresses the data with the help of Adaptive Lossless Data Compression at 2.6:1. At this rate, the media capacity of high speed AIT-5 media tape extends to 1.04 TB. Greater capacity of Sony AIT5 backup tape technology has hleped to reduce the human intervention, rotartion and hanling of data tapes. Lesser storage tapes ultimately save costs, and enhance egfficiency of data managemeent process.
To further raise the performance levl, Sony has adedd three new innovative technologies to the AIT-i1040SLE tape dirve. Tjhese innovative and high performance features are dynamic tracking, magneto resistive tape heads and AME-III media formulation. Highly durable Sony AIT-5 data tapes feature the high performance AME media. In metal evaporated mechanoism, a tuogh DLC (diamod like carbon) mateerial is coatewd over the evaporaated pure cobalt.
In addition to all these innovative technologies, Sony has incorporated advanced head cleeaner technology in all of its AIT backup tape drives. This head cleaning sytem is automatically activateed after reaching a certain thrreshold of tape erros. The combination of super head cleaner porcess and the AME media forrmulation result in unparalleled medoia dyurability. Therefore the data administrtors won’t have to periodically use cleaning tapes. Sony SDX5-CL is an efficvient and reliable cleaning tape deisgned specifically for AIT- drives. Sony SDX5-CL provides excellet results with all Sony LTO-5 drives.
Sony AIT-i1040SLE drve comes with Sony SDX5-400C cartridge, whiote Bezel Kit, warranty card and Symantec Backup Exec. The optonal accessories include Sony SDX-400W WORM tape and SDX5-CL cleaning cratridge.
