Note: Receiving a Return Authorization does not guarantee warranty replacement. The tapes must pass a physical inspection upon receipt. Physical damage, via carrier or otherwise, is not covered.

Note: Ensuring customer confidentiality is a priority to Quantum. Whenever a tape cartridge is returned to Quantum you are insured that the data on the tape cartridge will be immediately erased using Quantum�s processes and equipment. A second step is taken to physically destroy the cartridge. With these steps Quantum eliminates any possibility of any unauthorized party retrieving previously recorded data.

Returning your media:

After receiving a Media RA number send the media to the address found on the Return Instructions for Media page.
You must use a traceable carrier (FedEx, UPS etc.). Do not use US Mail.
Ensure the RA number is included in the address and is clearly visible on the box.
