HP Custom and Non-Custom Labeled Media

Compatibility

  Tri-Optic
®
 bar codes for LTO-1, LTO-2, LTO-3 RW/   
  WORM and LTO-4 RW/WORM are compatible with  
  all HP automated tape devices and most leading  
  third-party vendors. 
 
 
Two simple checks to guarantee 100% compatible media 
 
Compatibility is crucial for businesses to be able  
to protect their investments in a particular storage  
technology, while taking full advantage of new 
 generations of media. HP branded media will work 
to specification on any non-HP drive, but will achieve 
superior performance on the HP drive for which it 
has been specifically developed. HP designs, builds 
and tests media and drives together to provide lasting 
solutions that customers can depend on, even in the 
most intensive, automated environments. Ultrium 
deserves a special mention here. Because it is an 
open standard that requires independent qualification, 
compatibility is something you can take for granted.
