As good as any tape

Adhesive tapes have tape and I've never had a problem with others other than they wear out after repeated use which is to be expected. I assume you can get at least 100 LTO tape backups, which is good.

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • Was damaged

Loud, poorly made, shitty labels.

I thought my tape drive broke after loading one of these tapes. The spindle is everywhere and I've never heard a tape like it. It's simple: noise = bad technology. I will never buy HP tapes again. I am very satisfied with Sony or other leading brands. Why did I bother to mention labels? Try to buy LTO tape labels and see how expensive they are! HP has its own logo, a few lines, and a bunch of things you don't want or want on your label. I will never understand why they did this. But if labels…

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Can I add something?
