I don't think you'll have any problem - as long as you're not expecting the 3592 drive to read the 3590 tape.

Given the increased tape capacity, we are concerned with the seek time of the 3592s, i.e., will they noticeably delay recalls? I'd appreciate comments from those with experience in this area. TIA.
