Sony is a market leader in consumer electronics and backup storage products. Sony has been manufacturing backup storage products for more than 50 years. To help small and medium organizations overcome their exploding data protection needs, Sony engineered a reliable, space-efficient and economical AIT tape media format. Sony AIT provides a superior and robust solution for you to backup and manage the burgeoning data amounts. Sony AIT tape products include scalable automated libraries, high speed tape drives and compact tape cartridges.
The latest version of the successful AIT format is AIT-5 tape, which is well-suited for government agencies, midrange computing systems, financial institutions, small businesses and time-critical applications. As compared to the rival half-inch tape cartridges, the AIT backup tape is almost 67 percent smaller in size. Additionally, its tape area and tape length has been reduced by 27% and 40% respectively. You will be amazed to know that even with such small physical size, the Sony AIT-5 tape cartridge can store massive 400GB native data. Greater media capacity has been made possible by the significant increase in the recording density.
For long term data storage, you can trust Sony AIT-5 technology. Its special WORM functionality ensures superior data integrity by recording the data in a non-erasable and over-write protected format. SDX5-400C is a rewritable AIT5 tape, whereas SDX5-400W is a Sony AIT5 WORM cartridge. Internal and external AIT-5 drives are available with flexible ultra-160 wide SCSI connectivity option. Sony AIT 5 drives feature 24 Mbps native throughput rate. Thanks to the increased 2.6 to 1 data compression, you can store 1.04 TB compressed data per single AIT-5 cartridge. Sony AIT 5 drives feature three-generation backward compatibility. So you can use AIT-4, AIT-3 EX and AIT-3 tapes with AIT-5 drives, and confidently perform both read and write operations.
Sony's backup tape portfolio features the market-leading technologies that allow you to manage your data with rock solid reliability. Few of the best-selling tape cartridges developed by Sony are:
Sony LTO-5 tape
LTX1500G
Sony DDS-4 tape
DGD-150P
Sony SDLT-1 tape
SDLT1-320
Sony DAT-72 tape
DGDAT72
Sony LTO-4 tape
LTX800G
Sony DLT-4 tape
DL4TK88
Compact architecture and new robust MR (magneto resistive) drive head contribute to the exceptional data tracking and unmatched 400,000 hrs MTBF. Sony AIT-5 drive's exclusive "dynamic tracking" system ensures optimized storage performance and maximizes the output frequency. That's why Sony AIT-5 drive is the customer's first choice for time-critical applications and busy data centers.
Sony has used AME-III (advanced metal evaporated) system for the development of AIT5 backup tapes. AME-III is a new advanced method for coating the magnetic layer onto the base film that helps to increase the tape surface's smoothness and uniformity. As a result, the Sony AIT-5 tape realizes higher output, significantly reduced noise level and longer media life of 30,000 full tape passes.
Sony AIT-5 offers an affordable backup solution that allows the data administrators to continually realize superior storage management, enhanced performance, cost-efficient scalability and long term reliability.
