Re: Non-IBM LTO tapes in a 3584

For what it's worth, we brought in 380 tapes with our library two years ago.
They were all Fuji tapes. We haven't had any problems with them that
couldn't be traced back to drive or drive firmware issues.

Subject: Non-IBM LTO tapes in a 3584
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
