Description
Barcode Labels and Tape Initialization (Formatting) for LTO-7 Type M - M8 Tape Media (only for use in LTO 8 Tape Drives
If you need LTO7 Type M (M8) barcode labels only, please use our Product ID BCODE-LTO
LTO Type M - M8 Barcode labels are designed to be used with new, unused LTO 7 Ultrium Tapes in an LTO 8 tape drive. Unfortunately, we can only Initialize IBM LTO 7 Tapes.
The LTO Program has introduced a new capability for LTO-8 drives: The ability of an LTO-8 drive to write and read 9 TB (or up to 22.5TB compressed @ 2.5:1) on a brand new LTO-7 tape cartridge instead of the 6 TB specified by the LTO-7 format. This LTO 7 tape is known as LTO-7 Type M media and it has a barcode label with a M8 Media Identifier. Type M cartridges can only be initialized in libraries or autoloaders. Although standalone LTO-8 drives cannot initialize Type M cartridges, they can read and write LTO-7 Type M cartridges that have been initialized in a library or autoloader.
We create custom LTO Type M/M8 barcode labels (P/N BCODE-LTO-M8) to manufacturers specifications using your sequence numbers and color combinations.
We Do Not Sell Labels Only! Label Quantity Must Match Tape Quantity!
We offer Barcode Labels as a service to our customers.
All barcode label orders must be associated with matching tape cartridge orders.
