We have used 2 different kinds of tape-- Sony and Scotch. They are the high quality (sp) metal particle tapes. Never so much as had a single problem with them. One recomendation from our plant which OEMs the Exebyte (we put our own SCSI controller in it) is to clean the tape heads every 24 hours of operation. -- Steve Bridges | NCR - USG Product Marketing and Support OLS Steve.Bridges@Dayton.NCR.COM | Phone:(513)-445-4182 622-4182 (Voice Plus) ..!ncrlnk!usglnk!uspm650!steve | AOPA #916233 ..!uunet!ncrlnk!usglnk!uspm650!steve| PP-ASEL, AMEL
