Media density codes

General Discussion

Hi all,

is there a way to find the media density codes known to CTA?
Either that or do you have the required density code nbwraps (min/max lpos?) for LTO9 media?

Cheers

Tim

Tricky question, here are our values:

For LTO9, we benefit from oRAO provided directly by the drive so those values you are after are not needed.

Cheers,

Vladimir
