Product overview
02JH838 is an IBM LTO-9 FH SAS tape Drive Module for TS4300 Library. Tape generations read back further than they write, so the drive generation has to be chosen against the archive you already hold. This is LTO-9. Tell us what your oldest cartridges are and we will confirm the drive can still read them.
Tell us the oldest generation in your archive and we will confirm this drive can still read it before you commit.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against 02JH838 specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.

Read compatibility confirmed
We check the drive generation against the oldest cartridges in your archive before you commit to it.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is 02JH838 genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in IBM packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will 02JH838 work in my server?
Tell us the library, the backup software version and the oldest cartridge generation you still need to read. Tape reads back further than it writes, and the software support matrix matters as much as the hardware.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes. We quote against a purchase order and hold the price for the quote period, with tiered rates at quantity. Net terms are available once the account is approved.
