itself, and it is guided by the stationary HGA. It is inherently more
stable, because much less movement is possible.
When you look at a conventional two-reel 8mm cassette, it is obvi-
ous that the two reels take up a great deal of space, leaving less
space for tape. Not only can you see the difference, you can feel it.
A DLTtape cartridge, with only one reel, is packed full with tape.
Just pick up a DLTtape cartridge, and you realize that it is heavy,
because it is all storage, and very little empty spaces.
These characteristics – half-inch format, linear recording, patented
tape guide, and the DLTtape cartridge – are some of the keys that
make DLTtape technology clearly superior.
Next, we look at the history of the DLTtape technology.
