ZCART

indicates a 3490E, extended capacity cartridge that provides greater storage capacity than an ECART. It can be used only on a 9490EE drive.

ZCART can be abbreviated as Z.

DD3

indicates any DD3A, DD3B, or DD3C (HELical) cartridge.

DD3A, DD3B, DD3C

indicates a helical cartridge. The media indicator in the external label is encoded with the cartridge type (A, B, or C).

Note: DD3A, DD3B, or DD3C can be abbreviated to A, B, or C, respectively.

Types of helical cartridges, along with their associated media capacities, are:

A - 10GB

B - 25GB

C - 50GB.

Data capacity differences between DD3A, DD3B, and DD3C cartridges are related to the length of the tape in the cartridge, not to the recording density of the data.

STK1

indicates any T9840 cartridge.

STK1R

indicates a T9840, 20GB data cartridge. The media indicator in the external label is encoded with the cartridge type (R).

Note: STK1R can be abbreviated to R.

STK2P

indicates a T9940 data cartridge. The media indicator in the external label is encoded with the cartridge type (P).

Note: STK2P can be abbreviated to P.
