Chapter 6. Using Ultrium Media

To ensure that your IBM Ultrium Tape Drive conforms to IBM's specifications for
reliability, use only IBM LTO Ultrium tape cartridges. You may use other
LTO-certified data cartridges, but they may not meet the standards of reliability
that are established by IBM. The IBM LTO Ultrium Data Cartridge cannot be
interchanged with the media used in other IBM non-LTO Ultrium tape products.

Figure 6-1 shows the IBM LTO Ultrium Data Cartridge and its components.
