You can order tape cartridges with the bar code labels included, or you can order
custom labels. To obtain tape cartridges and bar code labels, see “Ordering Media
Supplies” on page D-17.
When processing tape in the cartridges, Ultrium Tape Drives use a linear,
serpentine recording format. The native data capacity and recording format of
Ultrium data cartridges is as follows:
Type Native Data Capacity Recording Format
Ultrium 5 1500 GB (3000 GB at 2:1
compression) Reads and writes data on 1280
tracks, sixteen tracks at a time

compression) Reads and writes data on 896
