RDX A8 User and Service Guide — Version 1.0
An attempt to format a cartridge which has the write-protect switch set will result in
“Cartridge in Slot X Activated Failed”.
NOTICE
Initializing the RDX cartridge into tape mode or from tape
format back to disk format destroys any previously written user
data on the cartridge. The RDX cartridge will contain no user data
and will be blank.
Re-formatting tape format RDX cartridges back to standard RDX disk
To convert previously tape formatted RDX cartridges back into standard RDX disk format the RDX A8
system must be configured in Tape Library mode. The user then selects the “MANAGE/Initialize
Cartridge - Disk” tab and selects which cartridge(s) will be formatted back to standard disk format.
Conversation of cartridges from tape emulation back to disk format is done using the
FAT32 format. If the user desires to place a different file system format on the cartridge they
may choose to use Windows (right click on cartridge icon in Windows desktop) to format with
NTFS or other format options.
