How can users be sure of data interchangeability among LTO format products?
The LTO format trademark identifies products that are subject to annual 3rd party compliance verification sample testing to verify that these products comply with the LTO tape format specification. This compliance will maximize the likelihood for data interchange of LTO Ultrium tape media between different manufacturers’ LTO tape mechanisms. Use of this trademark will be granted only after an LTO tape format product has passed the compliance verification testing process.
