Yes, that is correct - HP had this feature with LTO1. I did hear,
however, that this created some interoperability issues. If you
wrote a tape on an HP LTO1 drive, there was a chance you would have
trouble reading it back on other vendors drives, because the tracks
weren't written quite

The biggest item to remember about LTO is that these are streaming tape
drives; if your system can not provide the data fast enough to keep the
tape in motion they have to stop, back up, and come up to speed again.
They aren't designed for that -- the

This is why we are moving to 3592-E05 drives. Besides the capacity
difference, the reliability we have seen with 3590 drives (even those that
are 10+ years old), far exceeds the LTO's. We mount 1000's of 3590

My understanding was that the IBM drives were more robust, because
they used no plastic parts.
Hi Allen,
I've been VERY pleased/surprised at how durable IBM LTOx drives have
been overall. LTO2 gave less problems than LTO1, and I think LTO3 has
had fewer problems than LTO2. For many sites they are an EXCELLENT
value and totally appropriate for TSM use.
On the other hand, I doubt there
