IBM 18P7534 1-2 in. Cartridge — 3592 Tape 300GB (900GB compressed)

Designed for high-density enterprise storage, the IBM TotalStorage Enterprise Tape Cartridge 3592 (part 18P7534, SKU SY365704) delivers large-capacity, durable media for 3592 tape drives. The cartridge uses half-inch (1/2") advanced metal-particle, dual-layer tape with a premium coating that supports up to 300 GB native capacity and up to 900 GB with 3:1 compression. Its ultra-smooth surface and a uniform magnetic layer less than 0.2 microns thick help increase media reliability and reduce drive processing time. The cartridge’s mechanical design — including improved locking pin, hub and clutch assemblies — reduces wear and minimizes surface defects for better longevity. A precision timing–based servo formatting process enables higher track densities without raising error rates, helping protect mission-critical data.
