Bob,
Just curious - what has been your experience (and success rate) with reading DLT IV media from SDLT drives. My company has about 15000 DLT IV media tapes and we are looking to go to 9940B. But my problem is going to be reading this media to these drives. We have DLT 7000's now (5 MB/s) and if we do migrate, we will have to include SDLT tape drives to read this media. I was just curious what your experience has been with reading older DLT IV media and how fast you read the data from SDLT drives.
Thanks for your insight,
Dan
