Hi, I've had the same problem with a few tapes now:
31-May 03:35 gemini-sd: Committing spooled data to Volume. Despooling 36,455,289,794 bytes ... 31-May 03:35 gemini-sd: cygnus_new.2006-05-31_00.05.02 Error: block.c:552 Write error at 105:4237 on device /dev/nst0.

Am I right in thinking these errors are indicative of faulty tapes?
