maxell 3590E 60GB tape cartridge

The maxell 3590E model 183200 is a 60GB tape cartridge built for enterprise backup and archive workflows. It fits drives that support the 3590E format and is supplied new.

Replaces lower-capacity 3590 cartridges

This cartridge doubles the native capacity of earlier 3590 media, so the upgrade is worthwhile when backup windows are shrinking or when fewer cartridges must be handled per job. It is not suited for environments that require higher native capacity or faster transfer rates than the 3590E specification provides.

Sustained streaming performance

During long backup runs the media maintains consistent streaming throughput without the speed drops seen in random-access workloads. The tape is engineered for reliable start-stop cycles across full-capacity writes and reads.

Questions about this item

What drive form factor does the maxell 3590E 183200 tape cartridge require?

The cartridge is built for 3590E-series tape drives that accept half-height data cartridges; verify your library or standalone unit lists 3590E media support before purchase.

How do you prepare the maxell 183200 cartridge for first use in a 3590E drive?

Insert the cartridge with the write-protect switch set to the unlocked position, then run the drive’s native format-and-verify routine before writing any backup jobs.

When should the maxell 3590E 183200 tape be replaced in a regular backup rotation?

Replace the cartridge after the drive logs excessive rewrite errors or when the media-life counter approaches the manufacturer’s rated pass limit for 60 GB native capacity.
