How to use
Handle the cartridge by its outer case and insert it into a compatible LTO-9 drive or autoloader according to the drive manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure the drive supports LTO-9 media and WORM capability if immutable write-once behavior is required. Configure backup or archival software to target the tape library, set desired retention and verification options, and run standard sequential backup jobs or manual writes. After write operations, verify successful completion through your backup software and store cartridges in appropriate environmental conditions for magnetic media.
Usage recommendations
Purchase and store cartridges in multiples of 20 as required. Maintain recommended storage conditions for magnetic tape: controlled temperature and humidity, minimal dust, and limited exposure to magnetic fields. Use tape library monitoring and periodic media verification to ensure long-term readability. For compliance use cases, confirm WORM settings in the drive and backup software before writing immutable archives.
