Track Layout

With the LTO-5 Tape Drive, there are 1280 data tracks on the LTO tape,

numbered 0 through 1279.

The area between adjacent servo bands is a data band. There are 4 data

bands, each of which includes 300 data tracks. The data bands are

numbered 3, 1, 0, 2. Data band 2 is closest to the bottom edge of the tape.

A track group is a set of tracks that is recorded concurrently. The sets of 20

data tracks in a data band are data sub-bands. There are 20 data sub-bands

per data band. The data tracks are accessed in a serpentine manner.
