I'm looking for confirmation on Tape Capacities.

We will be deploying a Sun E450 Server writing to DLT7000s in a
StorageTek TimberWolf 9714 Tape Library.

From the thread started by Yu Chen regarding tapes being marked Full, I
see that some of you see tape capacities of 35GB of data.  Is this the
average for DLT IV in DLT7000 tape drives?

I'm familiar with a site using Legato Networker writing to DLT7000s.
They are seeing tape capacities near 200GB.

TIA,
