The DDS-3 Tape Drive - 60

The tape drive will not operate properly in high humidity. 

Be sure to adhere to the environmental requirements for the 

server described in the technical information that came with 

the computer. In addition, follow the recommendations for 

use that came with the tape cassette.

Follow these guidelines to avoid temperature problems:

– Avoid exposing cassettes to extreme heat or cold. For 

example, don’t store a cassette in a car in bright 

sunlight.

– Avoid transferring data to or from a tape cassette when 

the temperature is changing by more than 10 degrees F 

per hour (roughly 5 degrees C per hour).
