Matthew,

in our initial "bunch" of 20 tapes for our 3570 we found 4 tapes with
different kind of problems (2 of them indication VCR problems, others
"tension lost" etc.). That's around 20% of "bad tapes" for us...

Mit freundlichem Gruss/Best Regards

 Subject: 3570 Tapes









Hello ADSM people,


I was wondering with what frequency people tend to see the "Lost VCR Data"
Errors when using 3570 tapes. I am currently getting lost VCR errors on
about 15% of the tapes we have.

Matthew.
