Ultra High-Speed Data Recording at 24MB/s::
Incorporates years of Sony's advanced magnetic recording technology, providing an extremely high sustained native data rate of 24MB/sec (86GB/hr).

Read Compatibility with DTF-1::
Can read tapes recorded by a GY-2120 at its transfer rate of 24MB/sec, so users can now access their tape assets in half the time.

Powerful Error Correction::
Maintains a very low bit error rate of 1 x 10E-17 or less.

Excellent Reliability::
Incorporates the following features: long-life amorphous read heads, automatic head cleaning system, precision tape transport system mounted on a rugged die-cast chassis, and sophisticated self-diagnostics.

Faster Data Access with Sony Tele-File™ System::
Sony's unique Tele-File system uses a non-contact type of flash memory in the form of a label attached to a cassette which hold data relating to both tape and system management; the GY-8240 series tape drive uses the data written onto the Tele-File memory to dramatically reduce load and unload times.
