Thank you, I already have seen this (Google images). No wrecked DLT tapes? An audio studio DAT recorder might be more used and especially the portable once are more stressed than DDS for the computer, however, you pointed out that you got a few wrecked tapes, this is a common issue, the mechanic is bad designed. One spaghettied tape is an accident, _a few_ tapes IMO makes it unusable as a backup media. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
