TapeAlert™ A firmware feature that monitors and returns the results of the tape drive’s on-going self-diagnosis activity.

Tape Path The path through which media moves from the cartridge, past the read/write head, and onto the take-up reel.

TCM The Tape Control Module implements the functions required to buckle and unbuckle the media and control the media motion.

Timecode Timecode information can be recorded within an MXF file. Given that an MXF file can have several outputs (MXF terminology: material package), each of them can be set to a different timecode.

TOC Table Of Contents - Contains file system information.

Track A linear or angled pattern of data written on a media surface. SDLT tape drives write information on multiple tracks simultaneously.

Transfer Rate The speed at which the data moves between a host (that is, tape drive) and a recorded device. Usually expressed as bytes/ sec or bits/sec.
