AIT-5 Media uses the new AME III coating. This technology improves upon its predecessor, AME II, with a new method for applying the magnetic layer to the tape, an enforced coating layer and a newly developed lubricant for stable operation. AME III media realizes high output and low noise through an improved metal evaporated method, resulting in smaller magnetic particles and a smoother tape that minimizes the spacing loss between the magnetic head and the magnetic layer.

Sony AIT 5 WORM Storage Media Features
Ultra high capacity and performance in a 3.5” form factor—delivering up to 400GB native / 1.04TB compressed (2.6:1 using ALDC)
AIT-5’s doubled capacity from AIT-4 helps reduce cartridge handling, rotation and offsite storage which reduces user intervention, increases durability and ultimately saves costs
Exceptional backwards compatibility with three generations (AIT-3, AIT-3EX and AIT-4)
Performance, compatibility, and reliability enhanced by three new technology innovations: MR Heads, AME III media formulation, and Dynamic Tracking
