Is my LTO-5 Ultrium 3000 SAS External Tape drive finished?
I ran the LTO Drive Assessment Test in LTT and Final Test Status is Failed.
Not sure why as Head Life is 96%
Tape Speed results are STOP and I don't understand why.
Here are some screenshots from the tests:
I am new to LTO-5 and this is a used drive I purchased on ebay.

The drive assemsnet testis the best way to verify if a drive is fit for service for not. Verify that the firmware is not out of date, and if it is under warranty/contract, should not be any roblem getting the drive replaced.

Re: Is my LTO-5 Ultrium 3000 SAS External Tape drive finished?
Hello,
I would suggest to update the LTO 5 drive firmware and follow the below links for more clarifications.
CUSTOMER NOTICE: HP StorageWorks LTO-5 Ultrium 3000 SAS drive firmware Z39W is released
https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=emr_na-c02645476

https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/swd/detail?swItemId=MTX_3186f9abc2b7486b9dc8bd1f3b
Tape Drive needs to replace after firmware update, if the issue still persist.
