How does SAIT-1 achieve such a high storage density in existing drive and media form-factors?
Answer:
Utilizing a standard half-inch cartridge form-factor, SAIT-1 media is able to achieve much higher capacity through helical-scan recording technology. Helical-scan recording is characterized by the ability to record many more data tracks than linear, longitudinal recording. By utilizing the same amount of tape as half-inch linear products, SAIT-1 is able to store more than twice the native capacity in the same space.
