Ditto 2GB and Ditto 3.7 GB tapes?
The 2 GB's give around 900 MB of TR-3 tape after formatting
on a real drive.
If you mean the 1.8/3.6 TR-3 tapes, they can be used by any
tape drive using TR-3 tapes. 3.7 GB sounds strange, though.

QIC (Quarter Inch Cartridges) are far too large physically
[1] to be inserted in DAT drives and 1/4 inch != 4mm (and !=
8mm either).
Additionally, DATs are pulled out of their cartdidge to pass
the reading head, Travan tapes have all the mechanics inside
(which makes them more expensive as well.

[1] DAT tapes are small, you can place about 2 and a half
of them on a 3.5 inch floppy or 3 and a half on a CD
jewel case. And they go completely inside the tape drive.
