for what-it's-worth department:
Here's the tapetype I created from the output of running tapetype on
the built-in tape drive on my Dell PowerEdge 2300 tower server, using
DDS-3 tapes.
If there's any other information that I could provide to make this more
useful, please ask, and I'll be glad to send it in.
Hope this helps someone.
