General problems with tape drives

You may encounter the following general problems with tape drives:

• Tapes written on higher capacity drives (for example, 150MB) cannot be read on lower capacity drives (for example, a 60MB drive).

• All QIC-02 and SCSI cartridge tape drives supported by SCO OpenServer will read the QIC-24 (60MB) format tape install product.

• High density 150MB drives require DC6150 or DC600XTD tapes for writing.
