Chapter 5. Using 3592 tape drive media
The section introduces information about the 3592 tape drive media.
In addition to automating the storage and movement of IBM LTO Ultrium Tape
Cartridges, the TS3500 Tape Library does the same for IBM TotalStorage 3592
Enterprise Tape Cartridges.
Overview of 3592 media
This section describes the tape cartridges that are used by 3592 tape drives in the
TS3500 Tape Library.
The 3592 tape drive uses nine different data cartridge types and a cleaning
cartridge. Characteristics of these cartridges are summarized in Table 57 on page
174.
Figure 49 shows the IBM TotalStorage 3592 Enterprise Tape Cartridge.
Cartridges can be distinguished by the text on the product label, as well as by the
color of the cartridge case. Table 57 on page 174 gives the differences of the 3592
Tape Cartridges.
