What do the SMART stats from those tapes look like? LTO has separate read and write heads. The technology verifies what's been written a few ms after it's been written and the drive will rewrite any data blocks it decides has uncorrectable errors in. If the SMART stats look ok then the problem is likely your HBA or f/c interfaces (too short a FC cable can cause all sorts of wierd problems..)
