Seagate AIT Sidewinder 70 (STA1701W-S) AIT Tape Drive

Advanced intelligent tape (AIT) is the first multisourced tape standard targeted at the midrange server market, which is typically characterized by systems that support 2 to 129 users in a commercial environment. AIT was designed to support this key market segment with a combination of exceptional data integrity, speed and capacity. Several breakthroughs make this possible including stronger, thinner media that is more stable and has better coatings than previously available. In addition, new head technologies, higher levels of integration, and a unique memory in cassette (MIC) feature have resulted in multi-Gbyte, high-performance tape drive systems with very low frequencies of error that are perfect for tape libraries and robotic applications associated with midrange systems backup. ??This high performance tape drive delivers the kind of advantages that make it the ideal backup choice for use in today's midrange server systems.
