Removing a Cartridge
Caution:
To avoid damage to the cartridge or the tape drive, remove the
cartridge from the DLT VS 40/80 GB tape drive before turning off the drive.
Leaving a cartridge in the drive when power is off can result in cartridge and
drive damage and may cause data loss because the header/catalog data may
not be properly written before the drive loses power.
To remove a cartridge:
1. Press the Unload button or use the backup software to unload the cartridge.
The Ready LED blinks while the drive rewinds the tape. When the drive has
rewound the tape it ejects the cartridge.
2. Remove the cartridge from the drive.
