| 20120039002 | Tape Cartridge Formatted with Increased Data Redundancy for Testing and Repair of a Defective Tape Drive - A tape drive assembly for data storage on a magnetic tape includes a tape head, a cartridge receiver and a controller. The cartridge receiver selectively receives a cartridge having a test tape formatted at a predetermined location with standard drive compatible format with increased data redundancy enabling tape drives to read data in the presence of excessive errors in tape drives that exceed the capabilities of the native drive format error corrections code. The test tape is able to operate in a drive, with multiple defective heads, that said drive would not operate with a normal format tape. | 02-16-2012 |
| 20110181985 | TAPE CARTRIDGE FORMATTED WITH PREDETERMINED ERROR PATTERNS FOR TESTING A TAPE HEAD OF A TAPE DRIVE - A tape drive assembly for data storage on a magnetic tape includes a tape head, a cartridge receiver and a controller. The cartridge receiver selectively receives a cartridge having a test tape formatted at a predetermined location with data errors with predetermined type, size and distribution representative of data errors in tape drives. The test tape is able to measure the quality of heads in suspect tape drives by comparing the ratio of the error count successfully recovered by the suspect head to that recovered by the reference drive while reading the same error distributions. | 07-28-2011 |
