If anyone is using LTO-4 media, do you have any recommended brands? Have
you had any problems or issues with the media? We will be moving to LTO-4,
so just curious before we buy.

All our LTO-3 media has been Sony, and that's worked fine. We've also used Fuji and Quantum for SDLT-2 media, and back when we were using LTO-1, we used a combination of Sony, Fugi, Maxell and Imation. We had a few problems with some of the Imation media way back when, but that was then and this is now, and a few bad tapes also occurred with some of those other brands, too, but it was a rare occurrence all in all.

Would appreciate any feedback.

George
