SDLT Media

When inspecting an SDLT media cartridge refer to the following diagrams to check the leader buckles on the media.
Figure 29 shows a good cartridge.

Figure 29 Good SDLT Leader Buckles

Tests have shown that dropping the media causes excessive stress to the spring-loaded cartridge hub. This stress can
pull the tape media further into the media cartridge and bend the leader buckles. Refer to Figure 30 to identify bent-
in leader buckles.

Figure 30 SDLT Bent-In Leader Buckles

Media with bent-in leader buckles can cause the tape drive to drop the leader when trying to load the media into the
take-up reel.
