Hi guys, I found the DLT I have.. it's a Tandberg DLT1 (that's why it states 40/80gb on tape type IV).
found this under that drive:
>> from FAQ-o-matic
Quantum DLT7000 391B <Tandberg DLT1>
data from tapetype length 38398 mbytes filemark 40 kbytes speed 1494 kps
On FreeBSD 4.4RC5 PIII 1GH 512MB RAM
data from tapetype: length 38398 mbytes filemark 40 kbytes speed 1494
kps On FreeBSD 4.4RC5 PIII 1GH 512MB RAM on Adaptec 19160B Ultra160 SCSI
<<
As you can see I got twice the kps as they did.. see earlier post:
[root]# tapetype -f /dev/tape -e 35g
wrote 1238544 32Kb blocks in 108 files in 13999 seconds (short write)
wrote 1244278 32Kb blocks in 217 files in 14257 seconds (short write)
define tapetype unknown-tapetype {
comment "just produced by tapetype program"
length 38794 mbytes
filemark 0 kbytes
speed 2811 kps
}
so I wouldn't really like to set the filemark at 40kbytes, if that means
it will run at half speed..
Do any of you have any explanations for this HUGE difference?
