Hello,

 From my --admittedly very limited-- experience is with LTO2 drives from 
 HP and LTO3 ones from IBM I would say that while IBM drives "feel" more 
 solidly built, from a technology point of view HP definitely has the 
 lead. Typical examples are shorter loading times and a much better 
 adaptive transfer rate algorithm (IBM drives need a stop/start for each 
 tape speed change, while HP's can just switch on the fly).

 Can't really say much about reliability, though, as I have yet to 
 experience any failures.
