Notes |
| Notes |
* The actions of the tape drive can be divided
into four distinct phases: Phase 1: Load time — the amount of time required to
insert a cartridge in the drive, load the tape and prepare to read, write or
search. Phase 2: Average file access time — the amount of time required to
search from the beginning of the tape to the midpoint; does not include load
time. Phase 3: Maximum rewind time — the amount of time required to rewind the
tape from the end to the beginning of the tape. The average rewind time is the
time to rewind a tape from the midpoint to the beginning, i.e. one-half of the
maximum rewind time. Phase 4: Unload time — the amount of time required to eject
the cartridge from the drive. |
