Just had an odd request - someone has asked me to extract the data off what
looks to be an old DDS-style tape cartridge.  It's an Imation/3M branded
tape, with the following useful information:

DC2120
307.5ft (93.7m)
120MB

It's got the metal base and accoutrements of the DDS-[3,4,or whatever it is]
tapes I use at work.

So, can I drop this into a modern DDS tape drive and read it?  (That'd be
cool).  If not, does anyone have a tape drive I could borrow for a few
minutes to get the data off?  $BEVERAGE_OF_CHOICE can be supplied to helpful
parties, if desired.
