We use Fuji tapes as well, in fact I understand that IBM tapes are
re-badged Fuji. Maybe someone out there knows for sure.

We have purchased Fuji media and have over 500 LTO tapes in our library.
Works just fine.

I have a customer running a 3583 who also needed more tapes and did not
want
to pay more for IBM tapes. He instead went for Sony LTO tapes. The
interesting thing is that the read/write errors always seem to be with the
IBM tapes and never with the Sony tapes.

we've been running IBM tapes but we've gotten cheaper prices on HP and

tapes.
