Sony AIT-3 tape drives deliver up to 260 GB capacity in a compact 3.5-inch form factor. Sony AIT-3 tape drives offer high data transfer rates of 12.0 MB/s native and 31.2 MB/s with 2.6: 1 compression for today's most demanding data storage environments.

AIT-3 tape drives are fully read and write backward compatible with both AIT-2 media, 36 GB and 50 GB data cartridges, and AIT-1 media, 25 GB and 35 GB data cartridges. Backward compatibility helps protect your investment in the valuable data you already have stored on previous generation AIT tape cartridges. A 64-Kbit memory chip embedded into the data cartridge provides high speed file location and file access.

Sony AIT tape 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 400, 000 POH.
