Part 3. Operation 19
WORM Function
The SDX-D550V supports the WORM function. This explains the WORM
function.
What is “WORM”?
“WORM” is an acronym for “Write Once Read Many”, a function that allows
data to be written to the same place on a tape only once, but permits that data
to be read from the tape for any number of times. The SDX-D550V supports
WORM cartridges. When a WORM cartridge is used with an application that
supports the WORM function, data that has been written to a tape can not be
accidentally deleted or overwritten.
A WORM drive operates in the same manner as a non-WORM drive when
used with a non-WORM cartridge (henceforth referred to as “regular
cartridge”).
The operation of a WORM drive and a non-WORM drive differs according
to the type of cartridge that is being used.

20 Part 3. Operation
How to Write Data onto a WORM Cartridge
As with a regular cartridge, there is no limit on how many times data can be
read from a WORM cartridge. When writing data to a WORM cartridge, the
data cannot be written to a portion of the tape that data has already been
written.
When writing data onto a WORM cartridge, it is appended after data that has
already been written onto the cartridge. Accordingly, you must move to the
EOD area before writing data onto the cartridge.
SCSI Commands Supported by the WORM Drive
The WORM drives support the same SCSI commands that are supported by
non-WORM drives. However, if an attempt is made to write to a portion of a
tape where data has already been written, the following error information is
returned: “Sense Key = 07, ASC = 27h, ASCQ = 00: Persistent Write
Protect” or “Sense Key = 03, ASC = 27h, ASCQ = 04: Write Position Error.”
Notes
• The manufacturer does not accept liability for data written onto a WORM
cartridge that is lost as a result of using this unit.
• The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any financial damages, lost
profits, or claims made by third parties arising from the use of this product.
Part 3. Operation 21
Part 4. Care and Maintenance
Taking Care of the Drive
Safety Considerations
■ Power
• Be sure to use only 100 V - 240 V AC.
• Avoid plugging into the same outlet as high-current equipment like copiers
or shredders.
■ Power Cable Precautions
• Do not crush the cable or place heavy items on it. If the cable insulation
appears worn or broken, do not use the cable.
• Always unplug the cable by holding the plug. Never pull the cable itself, as
it will break.
• If the drive is not being used for a long time, unplug the cable from the
outlet.
Avoiding Damage
■ Avoid shock and vibration
Intense shock, such as from dropping the drive, will damage it.
■ Environmental considerations
Do not store or use the drive in locations subject to:
•high humidity • excessive dust
• high temperature • intense vibration
• direct sunlight • sudden changes in temperature
■ Proper ventilation
To avoid overheating, install the drive where it will have free air circulation
around the case, and do not cover it during operation. The drive can
malfunction if the internal temperature rises too high.
22 Part 4. Care and Maintenance
■ Avoid sudden changes in temperature
If the drive is moved from a cool place to a warm place, or if the room
temperature suddenly rises, moisture may condense inside the case. After a
sudden change in temperature, wait at least one hour before turning the drive
on.
Inserting a cartridge with condensation inside the drive can damage the drive
or the tape. Immediately remove cartridges in the drive if there is a possibility
that there is condensation inside.
Leaving the drive on without inserting cartridges, moreover, will quickly
evaporate any condensation.
■ Abnormal occurrences
If the drive behaves abnormally, or if it begins to smell or smoke,
immediately unplug it from the wall outlet and contact your supplier for
assistance.
■ Cabinet cleaning
Wipe the cabinet with a soft dry cloth. For heavy dirt, wipe with a soft cloth
moistened with a gentle liquid soap, then wipe again with a soft dry cloth. Do
not use alcohol, paint thinner, bug sprays or other volatile solvents, as they
can damage the finish.
Part 4. Care and Maintenance 23
Taking Care of Cartridges
Use Precautions
• Avoid heavy vibration and dropping.
• The shutter on the face of the cartridge is opened automatically when it is
inserted into the drive. Do not open the shutter by hand, as touching the tape
may damage it.
• The cartridge was carefully aligned during assembly at the factory. Please
do not try to open it or take it apart.
• The write-protect switch on the face of the cartridge prevents the tape from
being written to or accidentally erased. If you do not need to write to the
tape, move this switch to the write-protect position (in the direction of the
arrow).
• In case of a sudden change in temperature, condensation may interfere with
• Avoid unnecessary insertion and removal of cartridges if you do not need to
• When finished using the drive, remove the cartridge.
Storage Precautions
• Keep cartridges in their cases when not in the drive.
• Avoid storing cartridges in dusty places, in direct sunlight, near heaters or
• Do not place cartridges on the dashboard or in a storage tray in a car.
Using your fingernail, push the switch in the direction of the
