Main Features

Huge capacity, based on proven AIT recording technology.
High reliability, supported by accumulated AME technology.

Cleaning Cartridge

Huge capacity of half-inch data cartridge

One SAIT-2 cartridge holds up to 2.08TB (2080GB) compressed* and SAIT-1can be storeed up to1.3TB(1300GB)compressed* in one cartridge.

*Compression ratio 2.6:1
The actual capacity, compression ratio and data transfer rate may vary depending on equipment, software usage, environments and data.
1GB= 10 billion bytes


AME (Advanced Metal Evaporated) Tape

This AME tape presents high density, reliability, and durability, evolved from the AME technology through the development of AIT.

Non-contact R-MIC (Remote Memory In Cassette) 64Kbit

This internal memory can simplify media management and accelerate access in library environments, compared to conventional bar-code methods.

SAIT-1 WORM (Write Once Read Many) format model

The format can be written to only once but read from many times. It is, however, cannot be rewritten. This prevents accidental data erasure or deliberate data alteration. This format is provided only for SAIT-1.
