Currently, we have a 3494 tape library and 3590 tape drives and 3590 tapes.
We are planning to get a couple of 3592 tape drives. My question is, will
we be able to use the 3590 tapes in the 3592 tape drives? I would think
since the capacity of the 3590 tapes is only 20G/40G it would not be a good
idea to use them.  Also, I'm not sure how the write speed would be effected
if we use these tapes. I assume there are 3592 tapes which have a larger
capacity and write speed.

Any ideas,,,

As always,,,thanks
