IBM LTO tapes are reputed for their quality and performance. When you buy the LTO tape drive from IBM, mostly some tapes are bundled for quick start. The part number of these bundled tapes differ from retail tapes, but they are essential the same tape.

IBM 95P4278 = 5 pcs of IBM 95P4436 packed together ( IBM LTO Ultrium 4 800GB/1.6TB)
IBM 46C2084 = 5 pcs of IBM 46X1290 packed together ( IBM LTO Ultrium 5 1.5/3.0 TB)
IBM 49Y9899 = 5 pcs of IBM 46X1290 packed together ( IBM LTO Ultrium 5 1.5/3.0 TB)
IBM 35P1902 = 5 pcs of IBM 00V7590 packed together ( IBM LTO Ultrium 6  2.5TB/6.25TB)

We are asked a lot of times for the difference in 2 part numbers, there is no difference in the product - Just that they are packed differently.
