Obtaining Accessories and Equipment
Make certain you have all the accessories and equipment for library operation, as indicated in the table
below. Many of these items are included in the library accessories box in the shipping carton. If necessary,
you can purchase these items from Plasmon (see Contacting Plasmon at the back of this manual).

Selecting Cartridges 
The Sony SDX-500 AIT-2 or SDX-700 AIT-3 tape drive reads and writes to the highly reliable AME
cartridges for AIT-2 or AIT-3 drives. AIT-2 or AIT-1 cartridges may be used in an AIT-3 drive, but degrade
performance. AIT-1 cartridges may be used in an AIT-2 drive, but degrade performance.The drive
automatically ejects cartridges it does not support.
