Hey guys -
I've got an old backup tape from 1999 that I'd like to get the data off
of. My big problem - I don't have the old system/tape drive around
anymore, or personally have anything that can handle the tape. (The DDS2
tape drive I tried just spit the tape back out at me.)
The tape is a DDS-3 Data Cartridge (Compressed Capacity 24 GB), an HP
C5708A.
I do not know how much data is on the tape (or if it's been corrupted),
but I doubt that it's anywhere near the 24GB. All I really need is a data
dump (to either a CD-R or such that I can FTP off to my server), and I'll
poke through it later. I really can't spare the $680 (the cheapest data
recovery quote I've gotten) for a possibly corrupted tape...
any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated. 8)
