Description

• Performance breakthrough - massive compressed capacity with a high-speed transfer

  Sony's Advanced Alloy Metal Particle (A3MP) technology takes tape materials and coating processes to new heights. LTO3 offers a breakthrough in performance with a massive compressed maximum storage capacity per cartridge.

• Cost savings with even faster data transfer

  For quicker backup and cost efficiency, LTO3 offers ultra-high speed compressed data transfer.

• High-performance data cartridge

  The LTO3 cartridge incorporates a robust non-contact 4KB IC memory. This not only accelerates file access, but also markedly speeds up cartridge access in library environments.

• High-density recording with low error rate

  Sony raised the S/N ratio further to optimize performance for high-density recording using MR heads. Output is boosted and noise reduced by employing the latest weather-resistant ultrafine magnetic material with high packing density on a newly designed base film surface featuring improved smoothness.

• Back surface design and lubricant

  Reduced tape thickness is one of the keys to attaining higher storage capacity in the LTO3 cartridge. To assure tape travel stability and optimum winding with this thinner tape, Sony reassessed the back surface design and adopted a specialized lubricant.

• Reduced critical tracking errors

  The dedicated servo writer that Sony developed for the LTO format provides a high-quality magnetic servo signal, which complements the enhanced performance of.
