Specialized RAM used as a buffer between a fast CPU or I/O
channel and storage which has a relatively slow access time (e.g.,
tape or diskette), to avoid slowing down the former.
Cartridge
Receiver
At tape insertion, the cartridge receiver assembly is responsible
for guiding the tape into its operating position, opening the door,
unlocking the cartridge brakes, and securing the tape for
operation. At tape ejection, the cartridge receiver assembly
reverses the process and automatically ejects the tape a fixed
distance from the front of the drive.
Compressed
Capacity
Capacity after data has been processed, using either software or
hardware, to reduce storage space while maintaining data
integrity.
CSA
Canadian Standards Association, also known as CSA
International.
CTM
Cartridge Tape Module. The main function of the SDLT’s CTM
is to provide the magnetic recording media used by the drive to
store customer information. The CTM also provides the
protective cartridge that allows the media to be removed and
stored safely.
