DLT Media
The data cartridge used in the DLT drive is housed in a four-inch plastic case and contains ½-inch metal
particle tape.
The write-protect switch prevents or allows recording over existing data. To prevent recording or
deleting, place the write-protect switch to the write-protected position. When installing cartridges in the
library, place the switch in the write-enabled position (unless you do not wish to record on a specific
cartridge).
A small orange rectangle is visible whenever the cartridge is
write-protected (to the left).
The orange rectangle will not be visible whenever the
cartridge is write-enabled (to the right).
Store data cartridges in a dry, cool environment.
Never reset or power down your computer or Scalar Library
while a function is in process or a tape is moving.
