Notes:
1. Indicates that the capacity can double typically when the compression option is selected.
2. QIC-2DC and QIC-4DC are compression formats. Cartridge capacity is data dependent. Capacities shown are typical.
3. QIC24 format is written by S/36.
4. Available as a migration feature only during an upgrade.
5. Use of DC6150 and DC6525 media may shorten the life of the tape device and require more frequent maintenance.
6. Requires i5/OS V5R3
