Product Overview
RDX Storage System
RDX storage devices are disk-based storage systems with removable cartridges
that offers rugged, reliable, secure, and convenient backup.
Supporting a wide range of applications, the RDX system is available with
different host interfaces and a variety of cartridge capacities.
A complete operable RDX system is composed of the dock bay (Dock), the recording
media and its physical carrier (Cartridge). The Cartridge is recognized by the
docking bay and its media is recognized as a volume on a host system. For RDX
products this volume is removable.
When a RDX Cartridge is inserted and loaded it is in the state where the device is
capable of executing media access commands. After unloading, the volume media
access commands cannot be performed.
The write-protected state determines whether an Initiator may or may not write
information on a volume. This attribute is controlled by the user of the volume
through a physical switch on the RDX Cartridge and through OS file system
attributes.
RDX QuikStor Internal SATA III Dock
The RDX QuikStor SATA III cartridge-based removable storage system is
designed for rugged, reliable and convenient digital data storage.

For information on the Host Interface Software protocol reference the most recent
RDX-SCSI specification document.

1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW
RDX Cartridge
The RDX QuikStor Cartridge system delivers a robust design that is physically,
environmentally, and electrically shock-resistant for digital data protection and
secure handling. The cartridge media defines the capacity of the product.
Figure 2: RDX Cartridge
The Dock is both backwards and forwards compatible with all RDX Cartridges –
users can use higher or lower capacity cartridge media. Each RDX Cartridge
contains features intended to protect the data written to the cartridge media
including ESD protection, shock and vibration alleviation, and a physical Write
Protect Switch detectable by the RDX Dock which may be set by the user to
disallow modification of user data on the cartridge.
