Part 1. Introduction 11
The AITe390/AITe390V drives have the following features:
• Supports reading and writing to data cartridges conforming to the
AIT-3 Ex, AIT-3, and AIT-2 Turbo formats.
• Supports reading from data cartridges conforming to the AIT-2,
AIT-1 Turbo, AIT-1, and AIT-E Turbo formats.
• Data compression provides 390 gigabytes of storage on SDX3X-150C data
cartridges.
*
The native capacity is 150 gigabytes of storage on SDX3X-150C data
cartridges.
• Ultra 160 SCSI interface is fully supported for host computer access.
• Fragment rewrite function (AIT-3 Ex)
• Frame rewrite function (AIT-3)
The AITe260/AITe260V drives have the following features:
• Supports reading and writing to data cartridges conforming to the AIT-3,
AIT-2, and AIT-1 formats.
• Data compression provides 260 gigabytes of storage on SDX3-100C data
cartridges.
*
The native capacity is 100 gigabytes of storage on SDX3-100C data
cartridges.
• Ultra 160 SCSI interface is fully supported for host computer access.
• Frame rewrite function
*
This is assuming 2.6 : 1 compression ratio.
The degree of data compression attained while recording data varies according to system
environment and data type.
