4.1.1 Data Cartridge

The Data Cartridge contains 1/2-inch MP (metal-particle) tape.

The cartridge door protects the tape from contamination when the cartridge is out of the drive.

The write-protect switch prevents data from the accidental erasure of data.

The label area provides a location for placing a label. A label that extends outside of the recessed area can cause loading problems in the tape drive.

The insertion guide is a large, notched area that prevents users from inserting the cartridge incorrectly.

4.1.2 Cleaning Cartridge

The Tandberg LTO2 Autoloader itself determines when a drive head needs to be cleaned. It alerts you displaying "REQ clean" on the LCD. The cleaning cartridge is valid for 50 uses. .

Important

If you insert a cleaning cartridge when the tape drive does not need to be cleaned or if you insert a cleaning cartridge that has expired, the tape drive will eject the cleaning cartridge automatically.
