The AIT drive ensures extreme reliability with increased back-up capacity and is designed for strenuous, high duty-cycle applications. The critical head and media technologies have been proven by the introduction of the latest generation AIT-3 product that doubles capacity and performance.

AIT achieves outstanding capacity and reliability in a tiny, 3.5-inch form factor:
Sony achieves unprecedented results with its AIT recording technology, providing high capacity and performance in a small form factor. The new drives and media, aided by the Advanced Metal Evaporated (AME) tape formulation, achieve a native capacity of 800 TB (w/compression) and a data transfer rate of 24 MB/second (86 MB/second with compression).

Reliable Data Storage:
The same reliable magnetic recording technology that the broadcast industry relies upon is also the important technology in the AIT format. The servo tracking system permits high-density recording through accurate tracking using embedded servo bursts. Furthermore, the use of an encoding system that optimizes the media and head performance with advanced electronics contributes to a significant improvement in high-density recording.
