EXABYTE 00558 60/150GB 225M Mammoth 2 8mm Data Tape Cartridge with smart cleaner

Exabyte AME with smart clean tape cartridges provide the highest level of data integrity and data availability in the industry. Designed specifically for the Mammoth-2 (M2) tape drive, AME with Smart Clean gives Mammoth-2 the automatic cleaning capability that automatically cleans the drive periodically and reduces the frequency with which the Mammoth cleaning cartridge must be used. Each AME Mammoth-2 data tape cartridge with Exabyte's SmartClean technology contains a 2-meter length of cleaning material with the AME media. This cleaning material removes elements that can cause read/write errors. A sophisticated monitoring system built into the Mammoth-2 drive determines when it's time to clean and performs cleaning automatically. Smart clean safely removes tape lubricant staining without causing head wear. Cleanings take place at the right time -- when they are needed -- and won't impact tape operations. With normal use, Smart clean reduces the need to execute separate cleaning actions with the Mammoth cleaning cartridge.
