Dell advises that LTO Ultrium tape durability is at 1,000,000 passes on any area of tape which equates to over 20,000 end-to-end passes or 260 full tape backups. Beyond 260 full tape backups a tape cannot be relied upon to hold all the data. They also state there is an archival life of 30 years if a new tape is used, the climatic conditions stated below are maintained together with a dust free operating environment and careful handling.
For the option of LTO barcode labels attached to your tapes please see Application of Tape Barcode Labels for details.
Drives that use the Dell LTO Ultrium6 data cartridges are recommended to use an LTO Ultrium Universal Cleaning Cartridge to keep the drive clean.
Handling and Storage
- Before you use a cartridge, let it acclimate to the normal operating environment for 24-48 hours
- Ensure that all surfaces of the cartridge are dry before use
- Do not expose the cartridge to moisture or direct sunlight
- Always ship or store a cartridge in the vertical orientation and inside a jewel case to prevent damage to the tape edge unless in a specifically designed case for holding tapes
- Do not expose recorded or blank cartridges to stray magnetic fields (eg. terminals, motors, video equipment, X-ray equipment, or fields that exist near high-current cables or power supplies). Such exposure can lead to loss of data or render the blank cartridge unusable
