DDS cartridge compatibility
Seagate Scorpion 40 drives are designed to use data-grade
DDS cartridges, which comply with ANSI specifications listed
in the "3.81 mm Helical-Scan Digital Computer Tape Cartridge
for Information Interchange," ANSI X3B5/89-156 standard.
The drive supports 90-meter DDS-1 media, but not 60-meter
DDS-1 media.
To ensure optimal data integrity and reliability, Seagate
recommends using the following DDS cartridges:
•
•
•
MRS cartridges have a series of alternate opaque and clear
stripes at the beginning of the tape. These stripes classify the
media as data-grade.
Write-protecting a cartridge
Figure 12 shows how to write-protect or write-enable a DDS tape
using the sliding write-protect tab. You can only write data to the
tape when the tab is in the write-enabled (closed) position.
