HP Colorado and HP SureStore Tape Drive User's Guide

Tape drives that feature HP Media Monitor.

**When backed up with Colorado Backup Software for Windows 95/98.

NOTE: Most backup applications include a Tape Retension function. You should

retension your tape periodically. The retension function fast-forwards and

rewinds the tape. This helps guarantee the reliability of data transfer when backup

operations are performed.

Windows 95/98 only: In addition to the tapes in the above table, the T1000,

T3000, T4000, 5GB, 8GB, or 14GB tape drives can also read from but not write

to backup tapes made using Colorado Backup software and a Jumbo 250, 350,

700, 1400; Trakker 250, 350, 700; T1000; or T3000 tape drive.

The HP Colorado 14GB and 20GB tape drive features the HP Media Monitor,

which monitors the life of each cartridge and tells you when your tape should be

replaced.

CAUTION: Do not share tapes used in a HP Colorado 14GB or

20GB drive with a HP SureStore T20 drive, because the HP Media

Monitor usage level will be reset.
