Quick question, I've got a Cipher F880 here (no
tapes yet - anyone in
the UK wanna help out? :&) and someone just asked me what the maximum
capacity of the drive is....
The Cipher F880 is a 1600bpi drive, if memory serves. It might also
do 800bpi. Capacity depends on the block size...but on average, at
1600bpi on a 2400' reel, you'll get about 40MB or so.
