A DDS1 tape should work in a DDS2 drive, but DDS3 and forward wont!
I purchased a bunch of 120m tapes for my DDS2 drive, and used them
for quite a while before discovering I was storing LESS information
on them than the 90m DDS2 tapes... Grrr...
If the drive works, stick to the 60m and 90m tapes :)
