You will need to connect Ultrium 460 ,Ultrium 960 and Ultrium 1840 tape drives to a dedicated SCSI Host Bus Adaptor
(HBA) that is Ultra160 or higher. To supply data to the drive fast enough to achieve full performance from the tape drive, you
will need at least eight disks as part of a RAID 5 array with read cache enabled. You can test the speed of your system with
tools provided at
http://www.hp.com/support/pat
or with HP's Library and Tape Tools application.
To achieve full performance from your tape drive, do not use the native backup application within the operating system (e.g.,
NT® Backup, Windows® 2000 Backup). For full details of supported backup applications, see
