This document provides updated information for the DIGITAL DAT loader.

DDS Media Differences
Currently two types of DDS media cartridge shell designs are in the marketplace. Figure 1
contains an illustration of each type.
Figure 1 DDS Cartridge Shells

Type A

Type B

MA−0372−93.GRA

The type A cartridge shell has a smooth surface on the side, while type B has a slotted design.
The type B cartridge was designed to provide a better grip surface. While a good ergonomic
design for manually loading and unloading a DDS tape drive, the type B does not perform
as reliably in the TLZ6L Autoloader as the type A. Because of the growing application of
autoloaders, some manufactures will be phasing out the type B design.
