Need to know DDS drive used to write backup tapes

As has been pointed out in private email (and probably here once it turns up) TLZ04 (60m tapes) is before the DDS nomenclature started, 90m is DDS1, 120m is DDS2, 125m is DDS3. Typical off-by-one error :-) Sorry Apart from that, still be careful what you put where. The tape-wearing properties of >60m tapes in a TLZ04 (and presumably other drives designed for 60m tapes) are real. The TLZ07 (120m tapes) manual suggests that 120m tapes should not be put in a TLZ06 (90m tapes drive). Not clear whether the TLZ06 would recognise 120m tapes as bad for it and refuse to use them or happily wear its head out on them. My drives always seem to protect themselves by chewing all the tapes, so I've never managed to dirty a head, never mind wear one out :-) Antonio -- --------------- Antonio Carlini arcarlini(a)iee.org
