Manufacturer's product description

A technological breakthrough for data backup, collection and archiving, the DTF (Digital Tape Format) Tape Drive and Data Cassette was developed by Sony in 1995 as an Information Archival Solution. The DTF Digital Data Cartridge has been recognized as the international ISO/IEC 15731 standard format for use in 1/2-inch DTF (Digital Tape Format) drives. Metal tape technology, with its excellent reputation earned and recognized at broadcast stations around the world, has been applied to the world of data storage to answer demands for speed and capacity. DTF utilizes this metal tape technology and therefore is a highly reliable data cartridge that has been refined and perfected based on the needs of demanding professionals. Just one data cartridge makes it possible to record 12GB of uncompressed data on a GW-240S. Sony's GY-2120 Drive achieves a super fast data transfer rate of 12MB/second, and the ALDC (Adaptive Lossless Data Compression) technology makes possible a maximum of more than 100GB of recorded data. The GW Tape has been designed with magnetic stability in mind. Employing Sony's unique HDA (High-Density Alloy) magnetic particles together with an extremely fine and uniform surface protective layer, the DTF possesses outstanding archival characteristics. High density packing of ultra-fine magnetic particles, combined with the most suitable calendering (compression and heat-added) treatment to produce an extremely smooth surface, has resulted in tapes with the potential for extremely high output and low error rates. A high performance lubricant protects the tape surface, thereby controlling the friction index and maintaining optimum tape-to-head contact. Also, an increase in the cross-linkage of the binder further strengthens the magnetic layer and maintains a low error rate even with repeated use. In addition, production technology that minimizes tape shrinkage reduces tape deformation over time, and as such high precise stable tracking is maintained over long periods.

VAIO BZ12VN
Review of Sony Vaio VGN-BZ12VN by  techno_man_37

Advantages: pretty decent laptop
Disadvantages: quite expensive

...This Sony VAIO BZ12VN is another new laptop from sony. Its one of their full sized laptops rather than the smaller notebooks that they have been bringing out and seemingly concentrating no recently. The installed ram on this laptop is a massive 4gb, meaning its not just fast, its extremely fast. Loading up and running even the most demanding programs seem a breeze. Also above average is the amount of hard drive that this laptop has. It has a fantastic 320gb of storage space for all those media needs and data needs too. This amount of space is well more than enough for me and should be enough for nearly everyone too as it is quite a spacious hard drive. The laptop also has a quite nice 15.4 inch TFT screen, this is the average size for laptop screens, it might make the laptop a little bigger, and therefore less portable but it... Read review

Review of Sony Micro Vault Midi - USB flash drive - 4 GB by  ladyboymondaytofriday

Advantages: large storage capacity - fairly cheap - widely available
Disadvantages: massive software flaw - wipes files randomly

...Say Sony, think quality, thats what I thought when I parted with £49.99 of my own - yes my own hard earned cash for the Micro Vault 4GB flashdrive. The amount of files I'm now moving and carrying around with me had got to the stage where I needed something reliable with a huge storage capacity so that I knew if I needed to store a massive powerpoint presentation to take on the road with me - I could with confidence. I ended up buying the Micro Vault from Amazon as it came in at about the same price as other different models but had a full 2 GB more storage and this got my juices flowing so to speak. 2 GB more - for the same price - bargain! The flashdrive is nothing to write home about - it's very functional - and looks pretty much the same as very flashdrive I've ever seen - port at one end and thats it. The Micro Vault does though...

Sony Vaio AR12M Mobile Media center
Review of Sony Vaio VGN-AR21M by  Chris745

Advantages: Powerful, Massive screen, Dual core, Fantastic media center,
Disadvantages: Large form factor, low battery life

...The first thing to strike me about the AR21M was the sheer size of the thing, immediately I began to have doubts as to how portable this system would be. I was pleasantly surprised however to find that despit its size it really wasnt too heavy. Size aside how does this machine perform? Well the beast is powered by an Intel core 2 duo CPU at 1.83Ghz, with 1GB of DDR2 RAM and a GeForce 7600 graphics card so should be able to cope with just about anything you throw at it., and BOY DOES IT!! As an avid gamer (When I get time at least) I was Eager to try a couple of the latest titles on it and had no trouble at all playing MOTW II, Oblivion and Mark of Chaos at top resolutions with all the features on, the system did get quite warm but I invested in a notebook cooler for around £20 which the vaio sits on top of and is kept ice cold by. As... Read review
