HP recommends that you use HP-branded cartridges in your HP Ultrium tape drive to assure the highest
level of protection for your valuable data. Our test program for HP Ultrium media is the most thorough
and comprehensive in the industry.
All HP cartridges must satisfy an exhaustive battery of additional tests that relate directly to real life
situations, where real data and real businesses are at stake. The benefit of the HP brand specification for
media is consistent quality. Through the testing of thousands of HP drives and HP cartridges, the ideal
formulation for backup performance is defined and then continuously monitored. This hugely resource-
intensive process is unique to HP and affords deep insight into the HP+HP backup solution for a wide
range of environments and duty cycles. Your best choice for ease of support and maximum dependability
is to use HP-branded Ultrium cartridges at all times.
