Greetings from Philly,

	Yesterday I got 1600+ errors when writing one TK50 tape with
my 780.  Field Service agreed that the drive was ill and replaced it.
Today, with the new drive, I got 54 errors using BACKUP/NOVERIFY on
three tapes.  ("Data sync not found - data sync timeout" according to 
Vaxsim)  Field Service says that 54 errors on three tapes is NORMAL.

Any suggestions or advice or confirmation?

Thanks,
	--Bob Curley
