Sony LTX 100G The Prime Media Tape Cartridge

Since the introduction of the Linear Tape Open format which is developed by HP, Seagate and IBM to solve the rapidly growing quantity and challenges of digital data, They formed a the LTO consortium and Sony is very important member of this group of excellence. Sony itself has vast experience and invented many magnetic storage formats for last many years. Sony uses its experience and developed LTX100G, tape format which is based on Ultrium magnetic technology. The magnetic tape formats have been increasing their capacity in recent years. These resources that the tape have to be planned to have an elevated recording compactness in arranging to save more data in less room. Therefore Sony uses best coating techniques and finest available metal particles to make a base film which able to hold 100GB native and 200GB compressed data. And the excellent data transfer speed of 20MB/Sec native 40MB/Sec compressed. Sony uses excellent technology which provides very thin layer coating methods and which is now competent of consistently be relevant magnetic particles as thin as a quantity of tens of nanometer over the complete tape surface. 

The 384 data tracks also help Sony LTX-100G, media to preserve the exceptional amount of data on 12.65mm wide and 609M long tape. Sony embedded a memory chip which is becoming a regular part of all storage media formats.  This is 4KB LTO-CM which is able to keep very important information about the cartridge usage history and accelerate the speed of data sources for data load and unload processes.

The Sony LTX100G, is perfectly planned to work in very high intensive conditions and developed with high class material and engineered with some very remarkable existing technology. The firmly closed shell also prevents the outer pressures and stop to enter the debris into Sony LTO LTX100G, cartridge and protect the inside component from all sorts of hard and harsh conditions. Therefore these cartridges are able to work for more than 30 years with the million of passes.

Sony has been working on these problems and developed an excellent and long term solution, and an electrical effort which protects the surface of the Sony LTO1 tape, which is talented to have very significant data and permitting a smooth and consistent writing and reading capability.
