Thanks. That's what I was looking for. Just general info. IIRC, back
when I was caring for a pdp 11/44 the RA-80 drive would *just* backup
onto one reel.
Thanks again.

That depends upon the density you're writing it at. For example, at
6250bpi, you should get about 85MB -- 6250bpi x 12ft/in x 1200ft =
90x10^6. 1200bpi will get you 1200 x 12 x 1200, about 16.4MB.
