The PX500 Series (PX502, PX506, and PX510) tape libraries with DLT-S4 tape drives 
are capable of utilizing DLTSage Tape security. DLTSage Tape Security is a unique 
solution designed to prevent unauthorized access to tape cartridges which is 
particularly valuable when protecting tapes that are transported offsite. DLTSage 
Tape Security is a firmware feature designed into the DLT-S4 tape drive which uses 
an electronic key to prevent or allow reading and writing of data on to a tape 
cartridge. This key is managed through the remote management pages of the 
PX500 Series tape library (refer to the 

Quantum PX500 Series User’s Guide

, PN 81-

81290 located on the 

PX500 Series Documentation CD

 for more information on 

the remote management pages). DLTSage Tape Security is available at no 
additional cost as an integrated feature in of the DLT-S4 tape drive and PX500 
Series tape library (firmware version 20 or later).
