Media Interchangeability Restrictions

If you interchange media between DDS-format tape drives, the fol-
lowing two restrictions apply to the media:
Data cassettes with compressed data can only be read by tape
drives that have data compression capabilities, such as the tape
drive (part number C1504–67201) found in Kit A2275A #AHS.
Full height (5 1/4-in) DDS-format tape drives (models HP
35470A and HP35480A) can get 1.3 GB and can read or write
to 60-meter data cassettes only, if they are not using data com-
pression. With data compression, these drives can get 2 GB and
can read or write to 90-meter cassettes.

Troubleshooting

If you have trouble with any of these procedures for using your DDS
tape drive, see Chapter 6 of this book, "Solving Problems."
