I have a curve in an early wangtek manual about this, too.
Oof, my mistake for wrongly assuming that recording density was the same
as coercivity. Now that I think about it, I should have known better.
I've done some more research on the specifics of the QIC drive in the 5100
and it looks like at 204 KB per DC300 tape it's not even to the ancient
QIC-11 standard. I wouldn't want to bet more than a nickel on the
suitability of DC600A media for the 5100, after all.
