Greater data transfer stability
An advanced cartridge mechanism optimizes reel-to-cartridge slip and friction.
The result is steady reel rotation for more stable data transfer.
Reduced critical tracking errors
Sony developed a dedicated LTO format servo writer to complement enhanced tape
performance by providing a high-quality magnetic servo signal. This noticeably improves
data writing and reading accuracy.
Advanced tape technology for MR heads
Sony minimized tape noise to match the high-sensitivity of MR heads. Tape surface variation
is also finely controlled to assure tape travel stability for optimum head-media interfacing.
