I know this is a stupid question, bear with me please...


Where I work (not CSUN), we just got a Motorola Delta 3600 in house. 

The streaming tape drive is an Archive 150MB SCSI.  I tried RTFM, and it
specifies some QIC standard (don't remember it exactly).  I don't know
anything about QIC.  Does this drive take DC-300 or DC-600 tapes?  DC-300
tapes fit, but don't read/write properly.  I don't have any DC-600, but
they look like the right form factor.   The company bought this beast
through a middleman (who has been worse than useless), so calling the
vendor is kind of difficult.

Any info would be appreciated, respond by E-mail, and thanks for bearing
with my dumb question.

Scott
