Can be mounted in horizontal or vertical format. Includes tape drive, with bezel and manual. NO software included. * High capacity, high performance Sony AIT-4 tape drives deliver up to 200GB native in a compact, 8mm data cartridge. Helical scan technology increases data recording density, while offering fast data transfer rates of up to 62.4 MB/s (2.6:1 compression). * Fast access to data with MIC The unique Memory-In-Cassette feature of Sony AIT drives, with 64 kbits of built-in memory, speeds access to data, providing fast loading (less than 10 seconds) and quick file access (27 to 37 seconds). * High reliability Sony AIT tape drives incorporate a redesigned head geometry, reducing head/tape pressure and delivering up to 50,000 hours of head life and an industry leading MTBF rating of 400,000 POH (100% duty cycle). * Compact form factor AIT drives offer high capacity in an extremely compact 3.5-inch form factor. With a compact size a fraction of the size of other high capacity tape drive formats, AIT drives are easy to integrate into desktop workstations, servers, and automated tape libraries. * Reduced periodic maintenance Sony AIT drives use Advanced Metal Evaporated (AME) media, which contains pure evaporated cobalt and is sealed with a super-durable Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating. In addition, AIT drives incorporate a Super Head Cleaner mechanism that is activated automatically when tape errors approach a certain threshold. Together, the AME media and Super Head Cleaner mechanism result in extraordinary reliability and virtually eliminate the need for periodic cleaning. -- SPECIFICATIONs ------------------------------------ INTERFACE/BUS- Ultra 160 Wide SCSI LVD/SE Low Voltage Differential/Single Ended 68-pin connector CAPACITY - 200GB (native) 520GB (2.6:1 data compression using ALDC) Linear Recording Density: 155,000 bpi Recording Block Length : Variable of fixed length blocks COMPRESSION - Adaptive Lossless Data Compression (ALDC) TRANSFER RATE- Sustained: 24.0 MB/sec.
