Chapter 1 Introduction

System Structure

To obtain the best performance out of your AIT drive, we recommend that you
connect the AIT autoloader to a host computer equipped with an Ultra 160 Wide
SCSI LVD/SE interface. The autoloader is controlled through the host
computer.

Note

A SCSI host adapter card must be installed in the host computer.

Compatible Cartridges

This section describes what AIT cartridges are used in the AIT autoloader.

AIT Cartridges

To achieve the maximum transfer rate and recording capacity, use the
appropriate type of AIT cartridge for your drive. For information on recording
capacities, see “Hardware Specifications” (page 45) in the “Appendix”.
