Take-up Reel
Super DLTtape media is wound. The in-the-tape drive take-up reel enables
DLTtape and Super DLTtape systems to operate using a single-reel cartridge and
thereby pack more media and data into every cartridge.
A firmware feature that monitors and returns the results of the tape
TapeAlert™
drive's on-going self-diagnosis activity.
The path through which media moves from the cartridge, past the
Tape Path
read/write head, and onto the take-up reel.
The Tape Control Module implements the functions required to buckle and
TCM
unbuckle the media and control the media motion.
A physical requirement of the SCSI bus. A terminator is a device
Termination
that attaches to both ends of an electrical bus and prevents reflection or echoes of
signals that reach the end of the bus.
A linear or angled pattern of data written on a media surface. SDLT tape
Track
drives write information on multiple tracks simultaneously.
The speed at which the data moves between a host (that is, tape
Transfer Rate
drive) and a recorded device. Usually expressed as bytes/sec or bits/sec.
Transistor-to-Transistor Logic is a class of digital circuits built from bipolar
TTL
junction transistors (BJT), diodes, and resistors. It is the base for the
semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) technology.
