Sony Optical Disc 5-1/4" Silver 4.8Gb 8"X Rewritable 1024B/S - 1 Per Each

Sony Magneto Optical Disk 5.25"

The special features of the 5.25-inch MO disk, namely its high-speed random access and massive storage capacity, make it suitable for a wide variety of applications. In addition to its use as an external storage device on PCs and work stations, it may also be used for LAN and Web servers, computer graphics, CAD/CAM, storage of X- ray and ultra- sound wave images, etc., non- linear audio/video editing, and document archiving by government offices and libraries. It may also be used for large-scale libraries and juke boxes that require high-speed disk changes.

• Robust construction for auto-changer use
  Sony uses its own rugged cartridge design and mechanical components to achieve durability of at least 100,000 load/unload cycles per side. Sony's original antistatic hard coat treatment reduces static buildup and protects the disk surface from scratches and dust
• Magnetic data resolution finer than laser spot size
  With MSR (Magnetically-induced Super-Resolution) technology, the recorded magnetic domain at the center of the laser spot is selectively heated to transfer its data individually to a special readout layer. This makes it possible to distinguish magnetic data that is much smaller than laser beam spot size
• Land & Groove Recording raises data density
  Besides writing data in the grooves like a conventional disk, this format uses the "lands" between the grooves as well. Land & Groove Recording creates two spiral data tracks to dramatically raise data density and disk capacity
• Widely adopted for demanding applications
  With its high-speed random access and massive storage capacity, the 5.25 MO lends itself to a wide variety of applications. MO drives can be easily connected to PCs and workstations including LAN and Web servers to handle computer graphics, CAD/CAM, X-ray and ultra-sound medical images, non-linear audio/video editing, and government agency or library document archiving. Other popular applications include large-scale libraries and jukeboxes that depend on high-speed disk changes
