Chapter 2. Using the Media
Use only IBM 8mm cartridges with the 7208 Tape Drive.
Types of 8mm Cartridges
The 7208 Model 345 Tape Drive is shipped with an advanced metal-evaporated
(AME) SmartClean data cartridge, an AME test cartridge, and a cleaning cartridge.
The 7208 Tape Drive reads and writes to new Advanced Metal Evaporated (AME)
data cartridges with SmartClean technology. SmartClean cartridges are designed to
combine the extremely reliable AME recording media with a short segment of tape
drive head cleaning material. The new SmartClean cartridges are easily identified
by their cobalt-blue color and are available from in 75m, 150m, and 225m lengths.
Although extensive use is not recommended, M2 can write to AME cartridges
designed for the first-generation MammothTape technology tape drives. When
these cartridges are used, M2 requires regularly scheduled manual cleaning using a
MammothTape cleaning cartridge. Such maintenance is greatly reduced by using
only SmartClean media in M2.
Data Cartridge
Use the AME data cartridge for saving or restoring your programs or data.
Large and small labels are shipped with the data cartridge. To avoid problems with
loading and unloading a tape, use only the small label on the tape cartridge and
place the label in location

shown in Figure 6. Place the large label on the
cartridge container.
