9741/9741E Drive Cabinet
The drive cabinet houses from 1 to 10 DLT, 9840, T9840, or T9940 tape drives
or a combination of these tape drives.
Digital Linear Tape Drives
Digital Linear Tape (DLT) drives mount inside a 9741/9741E Drive Cabinet.
These drives are high-performance, large-capacity, streaming cartridge tape
products. The tape drive design includes a quad-channel read/write head with
high-efficiency data compression to maximize data throughput and to minimize
access time.
DLT products use half-inch wide tape. The DLTtape™ IV data cartridges are
designed exclusively for the DLT 4000, DLT 7000, and DLT 8000 tape drives.
Operator Panel
Figure 4-3 shows an example of a DLT operator panel. When a library is in manual mode
you will use this panel to load and unload tapes.
