ABSTRACT:
A system detects a pattern of holes in a magnetic medium for determining a characteristic of the tape, such as the type of data contained on the tape. A memory device, such as a FLASH memory, is automatically updated when a predetermined pattern is detected. The updating is performed using a read operation without the need for a host system.
