ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a removable data storage cartridge in which the data storage media is first enclosed within a shutter assembly having a shutter window exposing less than half of the media. The shutter assembly is enclosed within a cartridge housing that includes a cartridge window. Rotation of the shutter assembly within the cartridge housing moves the removable data storage cartridge between an open position in which the shutter window is located within the cartridge window, thereby exposing the media, and a closed position in which the shutter window is located within the cartridge housing.
