The optical disks that you use with your jukebox are an integral part of the storage process. This chapter provides infor-
mation on the following topics:
•
choosing an optical disk type
•
labeling optical disks
•
write-protecting optical disks
•
caring for optical disks
NOTE:
The optical cartridges used in this jukebox are a critical part of reliable data storage.
Optical cartridges consist of an opto-magnetic medium and mechanical components. Consistent quality of opto-magnetic
media ensures correct “writes” and “reads.” The quality and fit of the mechanical components of the cartridge affect
accurate, smooth handling of the cartridge by jukebox robotics. A failure of the mechanical components of a cartridge
could damage the mechanism of an optical drive.
Caution:
Use only HP-qualified magneto-optical media cartridges in this jukebox. Use of non-HP-qualified media could damage an optical
drive. If a drive failure or damage is attributed to the use of non-HP-qualified media, HP will charge its standard time and
materials charges to service the drive for the particular failure or damage.
NOTE:
A list of Hewlett-Packard optical media is in Appendix A, Table A-1.
To see a list of HP-qualified media manufacturers, go to the “Product Information” section at www.hp.com/go/optical. HP
reserves the right to change this list at any time. These suppliers offer optical media products that have been qualified for
use on Hewlett-Packard systems. However, Hewlett-Packard warrants only HP-labeled media.
