3-3
This section describes basic information needed for using your DDS
tape drive and data cassettes. Depending on your configuration, your
DDS drive may be a DDS-DC drive, or a DDS-2 drive.
NOTICE:
In most cases, the information for using these
drives is the same; however, in a few instances
(such as the LED codes), the information dif-
fers for each drive. For the purposes of this dis-
cussion, wherever we refer to simply the
“DDS” drive, that information is for both
drives. Whenever the information differs, we
will specify whether the information refers to
the DDS-DC or the DDS-2 drive.
DDS Drive
Your DDS tape drive is a 3 1/2-inch form factor DDS tape drive with
data compression and a SCSI interface. It conforms to the DDS for-
mat standard for storing computer data, and incorporates a data com-
pression capability. It’s a high-capacity, high transfer-rate device for
data storage on tape.
