| •Explosive Growth in Data Storage | S-AIT is a new tape streaming format provided by Sony and Matsushita, and is an important solution for backing up important data all at once, especially now when individual hard disks are exceeding 100GB in size.
Naturally enough, capacities of individual hard drives are growing by 1.5 times every year, with maximum built-in drive storage capacities at 1.7 times per year. There is an increasing difference between the maximum amount of storage per tape drive cartridge, when compared to the increases in system storage. | |  | Normally, backup of data at companies occurs in the time period between close of work on one day, and the start of work the next day. Data backup usually equates to the 4 hour period between 1 and 5 am.
The capacities of HDD as used in midrange servers in 2003 are expected to be around 288GB. It is clear that only S-AIT is the only solution for effective use in the 4 hours time slot before the commencement of work. | •New Format for Large Scale Storage System Environments | | |  | The new standard large capacity storage S-AIT (Super-Advanced Intelligent Tape) has been developed as the most suitable solution for large capacity storage in the broadband network age.
The first generation SAIT- 1 released in 2002 achieves large capacity (500GB/1.3TB*) and high data transfer speeds (30/78*MB/s). | | | *2.6:1 compression | | S-AIT is an abbreviation of "Super-Advanced Intelligent Tape." | | *This item is BRAND NEW - not refurbished. It comes with all manufacturer supplied accessories, and full manufacturer's USA warranty. *A-20030224-1167-102
