Yes, that is correct - HP had this feature with LTO1. I did hear,
however, that this created some interoperability issues. If you

no wonder that they discontinued t

They are busy for up to 22 hours a day. I am very pleased with the 3584

no refills.
My understanding was that the IBM drives were more robust, because
they used no plastic parts.
