thanks for your quick answer. So the sound of the drive like starting 
and stopping in about 10 second intervals are normal?

While writing this - is maybe Maximum File Size of SD the reason? Since 
transferred data is about 1GB and it is writing an EOF mark to tape? If 
so, a full tape will have about 1500 EOF marks - can I safely put it to 
a higher value? As far as I understand the only drawback are maybe 
slower restores of files. But I don't think that would be a problem, 
since new data arrive in 5-10GB chunks.

Thanks,

Frank.
