 External 130 GB AIT-2 SCSI Drive with 5.25-inch Bezel High Capacity, High Performance
The Sony SDX-D500C tape drive allows up to 130 GB data storage capacity (with 2.6:1 compression) in a compact, 8mm data cartridge. Helical scan technology increases data recording density, while offering fast data transfer rates of up to 15.6 MB/s. Fast Access to Data With MIC
Sony`s Innovative MIC (Memory-In-Cassette) technology, with 64 kbits of built-in memory, provides fast loading (less than 10 s) and quick file access (27 s) times. Full Backward Compatibility
Sony AIT-2 drives are fulaly read/write compatible with both AIT-2 tape media (36 GB and 50 GB data cartridges), and AIT-1 media (25 GB and 35 GB data cartridges). This means maximum investment protection in the valuable data you already have stored on AIT-1 data cartridges, while benefiting from the increased capacity and performance of AIT-2 tape technology. High Reliability
Sony AIT drives incorporate a redesigned head geometry, reducing head / tape pressure and delivering up to 50,000 hours of head life. The built-in Super Head Cleaner™ mechanism results in an industry leading MTBF rating of 300,000 POH. Standalone, External Drive Configuration
The compact external enclosure includes a built-in power supply and cooling fan, making it easy to add AIT tape technology to existing systems. An industry standard Wide Ultra SCSI interface delivers fast data throughput.
