Abstract
A method of emulating a sequential data storage device on a random access device to permit the transfer of information in a sequential format between a host computer and a random access storage media. Commands for storing information in the sequential format from the host are transformed into commands to store data on the random access media. Commands for retrieving information in a sequential format are provided by the host to retrieve the stored information from the random access media. The commands for retrieving information are transformed into commands that retrieve the data on the random access media. Once the data is retrieved, it is then provided to the host.
