These auto cartridge loader tape drives are configured with one internal LTO Gen 3
tape drive along with one removable tape cartridge magazine.
Tape Cartridges
The amount of data that can be stored on the LTO Gen 3 tape cartridge can be up to
800 gigabytes (2:1 compression). DLTIIItape, DLTIVtape, or SDLT media cartridges are
not compatible with this tape drive. The size and shape of the tape drive’s media are
similar to those of DLT cartridges in order to make it easy for automation.
Internal Tape Drive
The ACL units supports a single internal tape drive. The internal tape drive can be hot-
swapped.
