Thanks for the info, we have a LOT of write errors with Imation (except last
production series), but none with IBM tapes.

hi, mark,
within 1 year we use 100 imation and 500 fujifilm ultrium1 tapes in ibm lto
drives. approximately 10% of imation tapes we had to return to distributor,
because of unloading problems. only 2 fujifilm tapes had serious errors.
ibm recomends fujifilm (some months ago maxell too) as alternative brands
to ibm ultrium tapes, you can check it on

All,
We're looking at purchasing extra LTO-1 tapes to go in our 3584. To date,
we've been running IBM tapes but we've gotten cheaper prices on HP and
Imation tapes. Both HP and Imation are priced about 30% less than the IBM
tapes.
But I'm wondering if there are any quality issues with either of these
brands. Also, I'm wondering if running non-IBM tapes in a 3584 might raise
any issues.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Mark
