About the AIT Autoloader Unit

Features

Useable Cartridges

The TSL-SA300C is a AIT autoloader unit containing a built-in AIT drive
unit SDX-300C. The magazine provided with the unit accommodates four
data cartridges.
The AIT Autoloader Unit TSL-SA300C has the following features:
• A highly-durable linear guide mechanism provides automatic loading/
unloading of data cartridges to the built-in AIT drive unit SDX-300C.
• The Advanced Intelligent Tape format provides a huge data storage capacity
on AIT cartridges (25GB without data compression). A 'Read after Write'
function and three-level error correction code guarantee high data
reliability.
• This model includes a data compression function which allows storing even
more data.
• While reading, the drive automatically detects whether data has been stored
with compression, and decompresses the data if necessary.
• Wide SCSI interface.
The drive uses AIT cartridges.
Caution
Regular 8-mm video tape cartridges look very similar, but are subject to an
entirely different specification, and cannot be used. Inserting a regular 8-mm
video tape will cause it to be rejected automatically.
