## Description

HP C8010A DAT-72 72GB 162 KB/inch Recording Density Data Cartridge

Review: works as advertised - Haven't put this batch of tapes into service yet, but have bought this product before, from this manufacturer, and had no issues. Packaging of the product has changed since the pictures were taken, but it's just changes to the graphics on the paperboard label inside the plastic storage case. Still the same inside, as far as my tape drive is concerned, so whatever. This DAT format is slightly more expensive per GB on the tapes, but SDLT, and LTO drives are way more expensive upfront. Make sure you figure your total cost/GB relative to how much you actually need to store.
