Introduction to Magazines and Cassettes
When purchasing DDS cassettes:
■ Always use cassettes labeled “DDS Media Recognition System” in the
drive. To use the full potential of the drive, make sure that they are
DDS-4 cassettes.
■ Never use DAT cassettes because the media is not certified and they can
have a different specification that can cause them to jam in the
mechanism (see Chapter 1 for cassette specifications).
