LTO Cartridge Specifications

 

 

The MTBF for the tabletop drive power supply is 50,000 hours with the

 

 

unit operated at full load and 25°C.

 

 

 

 

 

Note: The MTBF rating does not represent any particular drive, but

 

 

is derived from a large database of test samples. Actual rates

 

 

may vary from unit to unit.

 

 

 

 

 

The mean time to replace (MTTR) is the average time required by a

Mean Time to Replace

 

qualified service technician to diagnose a defective drive and to install a

 

 

 

 

replacement drive. The MTTR for LTO products is less than 0.5 hour (30

 

 

minutes).

 

 

The Quantum LTO drives are field-replaceable units. If a problem occurs

 

 

with a subassembly or component in the drive, you should replace the

 

 

entire unit. Return the drive to the factory in its original packaging.

 

 

Contact your distributor, dealer, your computer system company or your

 

 

Quantum sales representative to arrange the return.
