Hi,

We currently are using some 1500 LTO1 cartridges, both IBM and Imation in
IBM 3584 libraries and IBM LTO1 drives. The error rate appears to be equal.
Most of the problems (read/write errors) seem to be related to sensitive
drives. After moving the data and reusing the tape, most of the times the
read/write error didn't reappear. 

Regards,

Karel

We have a protracted problem with our 4560 library / Ultrium 1 tape drives
after 8 months of faultless performance.
IBM are blaming tapes.

Anybody has experience in using IMATION  Ultrium 1 for LT0 tapes?
Bad one in particular.
I would love to hear from you .,...

Thanks in advance..
