SLA-D libraries, can be accessed in about two seconds. Quick and easy data interchange is supported via the front-panel accessible MixedMedia Interchange Drawer. The Drawer can be configured with up to four removable media In computer storage, removable media refers to storage media which can be removed from its reader device, conferring portability on the data it carries. A removable drive is a reader device for such media. SCSI SCSI in full Small Computer System Interface Once common standard for connecting peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, etc.) to small and medium-sized computers.
