UDO drive type. These are available in both true Write Once and Rewritable media types.

UDO Media Labeling
To identify each UDO media cartridge used in the AA Express a sequence number, and the start and
stop dates for the cartridge must be entered on a label provided with the media. Plasmon UDO media
for the AA Express also comes with barcode labels to facilitate a later upgrade to an automated
appliance.
Inserting UDO Media
To load media into the UDO drive, insert the cartridge fully into the slot on the front of the UDO drive.
The media side facing up is the side the drive writes to.
Ejecting UDO Media
When a side of the cartridge is full it automatically ejects. Pressing the eject button on the front of the
UDO drive manually ejects the cartridge.
Write Protecting UDO Media
To write protect one side of the media, slide the tab on that side in the direction of the protect arrow as
shown in the figure below. There is a write protect tab on each side of the disk. When a side is
protected, the Write Protect window is open.
