Abstract
A magnetic tape apparatus performs at least one of data reading processing and data writing processing on LTO wound around a reel. The magnetic tape apparatus causes the reel to rotate and move the LTO to a position at which the data writing processing or the data reading processing can be performed by a magnetic head. The magnetic tape apparatus is arranged along the width direction of the magnetic tape of LTO, which is driven, to detect medium abnormality that occurred in either a start-end or a stop-end in the width direction of the magnetic tape.
