Load/Unload Slot

The cartridge slots accept only StorageTek T10000 or StorageTek T10000 T2 tape
cartridges. All other cartridge types will not load into the T10000 tape drive. After you
have inserted a tape cartridge, the loader mechanism lowers the cartridge onto the hub
motor, and threads the tape.
