Backup Tape Question

CA1254285 — Tue, 31 May 2005 08:47:50 GMT

Hi, this is a strange question I'm sure. I have 12 Proliant DL 380 servers. I use the tape cleaning cartridge Q1996A. How many times can I use that same cartridge? From what it says on the case, it says "do not rewind and reuse the cartridge". It cost $26, is it only good for one use? I clean my tape drives once a week. Maybe I'm confused, I don't know.

Thanks
Kathy

Great. Thanks that did answer my question. I don't know why they don't put that on the insert.

Thanks
