Cartridges That Are Compatible With 3592 Tape; Cartridges That Are Compatible With 3592 Tape Drives - IBM TS4500 Introduction And Planning Manual

Table 13. Compatibility among LTO tape drives and tape cartridges (continued)
Cartridge type
Notes:
1. The drive rejects any command to load unsupported media and returns a sense key of 5 and an extra sense
code/additional sense code qualifier of 30/00.
2. Un-initialized M8 media and pre-initialized M8 media are both supported with a minimum LTO 8 tape drive
firmware level of HB82 and a minimum library firmware level 1.4.1.2. The usage of M8 media with prior
firmware levels may result in a permanent reduction in the capacity of the M8 media from 9 TB to 6 TB (native).
