In most cases, you should rely on your backup program and autoloader to logically move media
within the autoloader. This functionality is built into the RDX QuikStation mainly for testing
and diagnostic purposes.
Set the Autoloader Option
The following autoloader option table describes RDX QuikStation behavior when this option is
turned OFF and when it’s turned ON.
In cases where you do not want the cartridge to physically eject from the dock, you can set the
option to have cartridges continuously rotate through the slots. This option eliminates the
need to re-insert the cartridges into the RDX docks.
Continuously rotate
cartridges in the slots
Behavior
Off (Default)
Physically ejects the cartridge from the RDX dock when the
virtual drive completes a backup job. Once the cartridge is
ejected, the virtual autoloader loads media from the next
subsequent slot into the drive. It will load cartridges from the
slots sequentially and will stop when it reaches the last slot,
even if new cartridges have been inserted.
On (checkbox is selected)
Does not physically eject the cartridge from the RDX dock
when the virtual drive completes a backup job. Instead, the
cartridges continuously rotate sequentially through the slots.
