I have the chance to get an inexpensive "HP

from my googling, it seems that these drives can read/write DLT III
(10GB), DLT IIIxt (15GB) or DLT IV (20GB) tapes. Are DLT IV tapes
(20GB uncompressed) worth the effort of tracking down and shipping?
We pitched out several hundred new-in-box DLT IV tapes from South Pole
over six months ago,
!!
I just spent a big pile of money populating a 110-slot juke with
DLT-IV media.
Though I suppose the thought of shipping them from the south pole
will quell the vomit rising in my innards.
