LTO Ultrium Cartridge

An LTO Ultrium cartridge has a single reel and a leader block (FIGURE 5-4), which makes it similar to a T9940 cartridge, but it cannot be used in place of a T9940 cartridge. Ultrium cartridges follow the linear tape open (LTO) format that allows them to be used in Ultrium tape drives made by any manufacturer, such as Hewlett-Packard, IBM, or Certance. In the past, cartridges could be used only in tape drives from the same manufacturer as the tape.
