Cleaning tape for Mammoth drives

This Exabyte Mammoth cleaning tape removes debris from the recording heads of compatible Mammoth tape drives. Supplied as a single cartridge, it is used during routine maintenance to preserve read and write reliability. The media is formatted specifically for the Mammoth format and is not a data storage cartridge.

Suitable for administrators maintaining Mammoth

IT staff responsible for Mammoth tape libraries or standalone drives should keep this cartridge on hand for scheduled cleaning cycles. It is not intended for organisations that need additional backup capacity or that operate drives using other tape formats such as LTO, AIT or DLT.

Media type: Mammoth CLEANING

The cartridge is designated Mammoth CLEANING media, which identifies it as a cleaning tape rather than a data cartridge. This designation is the sole specification that confirms compatibility with Mammoth drives and determines whether the part meets the buyer's maintenance requirement.
