CAUTION:

It is critical to ensure that the media you use matches the format of your tape drive.

Cleaning cartridges and formatted data cartridges are unique for each drive technology. Damage

may occur if inappropriate media is used in tape drives.

If using mixed media, ensure your software application supports it.

NOTE:

SDLT 600, Ultrium 1840, Ultrium 960, and Ultrium 460 tape drives do not offer hot-plug

capability.
