IRL there probably would be because you're probably not going to write out an entire 2.5TB LTO-6 tape at once. If you were spooling an entire tape, then you'd be writing an entire 2.5TB spool partition. Then the question is would the drive's firmware spread the writes over OS partition boundaries... -- Dimitri Maziuk Programmer/sysadmin BioMagResBank, UW-Madison -- http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu
