Sony AIT-1 Turbo 104GB Data Cartridge TAIT1-40N No Chip

The Sony AIT Turbo AIT-1 104GB tape no chip TAIT140N and holds a native capacity of up to 40GB and up to 104GB compressed capacity depending on the drive and data stored. It does not have a chip which normally allows the drive to index the files on the chip saving search time when reading data. Without the chip the drive reads all files on the tape from start to finish until it finds the file if you are restoring or reading. The Sony TAIT1-40N data cartridge can be read and written to in AIT-1 turbo drives such as SDX-450, SDX-460 and SDX-470 series, AIT-2 turbo drives such as SDX-550 and SDX-560 and SDX-570 series and AIT-3 drives such as SDX-700 series. The Sony TAIT1-40N data cartridge can be read only in a AIT-3 drive such as SDX-700 series or the AIT-3Ex drive such as SDX-800 series.
