When should I use the LTO Cleaning Tape
Cartridge? The LTO Ultrium Universal Cleaning Cartridge is
designed specifically for use in all LTO Ultrium 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 drives
and is compatible with libraries designed for LTO Ultrium 1, 2, 4
and 5 drives. The Ultrium system is based on the industry’s first open
data storage platform. The LTO consortium—comprised of drive
manufacturers HP, IBM and Quantum—developed this technology to meet the
increased midrange and enterprise storage demands analysts predict over
the next decades. LTO Ultrium Universal Cleaning Cartridge will
provide up to 50 cleanings per cartridge, as specified by the drive.
On most LTO Tape drives, the drive will indicate if cleaning is required
by continuous illumination of an external light or symbol. Some
environments may cause the drive to require a more regimented cleaning
schedule. |
