....Besides data transfer rate, other components of access time should also improve. Several drive manufacturers are reducing rewind and search times by implementing periodic zones on the tapes where eject and load operations operations are allowed, rather than requiring that the tape be fully rewound [8]. Robot arms are being made lighter and faster [12] Other improvements in tape drive mechanics will likely come about as market forces demand higher performance than was required for backup applications.

....drive access time are improving. Several tape drive manufacturers are reducing rewind and search times by implementing periodic zones on the tapes where eject and load operations operations are allowed, rather than requiring that a tape must always be ejected and loaded at the start of the tape [69].
