Cartridge
When
processing
tape
in
the
cartridges,
Ultrium
Tape
Drives
use
a
linear,
serpentine
recording
format.
The
Ultrium
3
drive
reads
and
writes
data
on
704
tracks,
sixteen
tracks
at
a
time.
The
first
set
of
tracks
)
is
written
from
near
the
beginning
of
the
tape
to
near
the
end
of
the
tape.
The
head
then
repositions
to
the
next
set
of
tracks
for
the
return
pass.
This
process
continues
until
all
tracks
are
written
and
the
cartridge
is
full,
or
until
all
data
is
written.

The
cartridge
door
(

in
protects
the
tape
from
contamination
when
the
cartridge
is
out
of
the
drive.
Behind
the
door,
the
tape
is
attached
to
a
leader
pin
(

in
When
the
cartridge
is
inserted
into
the
drive,
a
threading
mechanism
pulls
the
pin
(and
tape)
out
of
the
cartridge,
across
the
drive
head,
and
onto
a
non-removable
take-up
reel.
The
head
can
then
read
or
write
data
from
or
to
the
tape.
The
write-protect
switch
(
4
in
prevents
data
from
being
written
to
the
tape
cartridge.
