Questions buyers ask about this part
Is 259769-002 genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes, new and sealed, with the HP warranty and the firmware update path intact. We do not sell refurbished stock as new, and we do not source grey-market units.
Will 259769-002 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, POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.
