AIT Turbo supercharges entry-level backup. AIT Turbo drives deliver enhanced capacity and speed over the previous AIT-1 format, while providing the same industry leading reliability. When compared to DAT72, AIT Turbo offers lower cost and 2X the performance, plus more capacity. And with a complete family of AIT products currently available (AIT-E Turbo through AIT-4), AIT offers a tangible upgrade path into the future. Sony`s new AIT Turbo line is a compelling option for DDS users looking to migrate to a newer platform. AIT Turbo - Demonstrating Sony`s Dedication to Advanced Intelligent TapeTM.
Key Features Capacity: Up to 40 GB5 native storage capacity, or 104 GB5 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 6 MB/s native provides high performance backups - up to 21.6 GB5 /hour native.
Compression: Adaptive Lossless Data Compression (ALDC) provides greater data compression efficiency - offers average compression of 2.6:1.
Reduced Periodic Maintenance: Super Head CleanerTM provides an automated cleaning solution - increases head life and reduces the need for periodic cleaning.
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.

Service and Warranty Information Limited Warranty: 3 years with 3-year Advance Exchange Footnotes:
1. AIT-1 Turbo drives are backward compatible with AIT-E media. 2. Specifications and product plans are subject to change without notice. 3. Compressed capacities are based on 2.6:1 compression ratio using ALDC. Actual capacity may vary. 4. MTBF, head life, and media use specifications are averages based on normal environmental conditions. Actual experience may vary. 5. GB means one billion bytes.
