Introduction

About this user’s guide

This user’s guide contains information on installing and

operating the Scorpion 240 DDS-4 autoloader.

About the Scorpion 240 autoloader

The Seagate internal Autoloader is a fully integrated,

intelligent, multicartridge tape system that supports the DDS

(Digital Data Storage), DDS-1, DDS-2, DDS-3, and DDS-4

tape formats. It includes a magazine that can accommodate

up to six tape cartridges.

The internal autoloader (STDL42401LW) is designed to be

installed inside a computer, in a 5.25-inch, full-height drive

bay. The external autoloader (STDL62401LW) is a standalone

subsystem that connects to a host system using a 68-pin

shielded SCSI cable.

Note: The Scorpion 240 will not work in a SCSI-1

environment.

The Scorpion 240 autoloader combines established DDS

technology, high density recording and hardware data-

compression capability, and Seagate's proven computer-

grade DDS tape drive to provide unmatched reliability and

performance.
