Yes we do have this problem. 3590 E11 supports TEST MEDIA option. Before
using the tape for the first time, we test the tape. It has failed while

One out of our first 100 tapes appears to have some sort of damage, can't
read the internal label.
Have you tried reinitializing them, or do you have a way to tell for sure
that the tape is trashed?

I can provide positive feedback on the 3590-K extended length cartridges. We
have been using them for about two (2) months with no errors. All is well
and the 40GB native capacity sure extended the life of our 3494 library!
