Recently I have had to restore about a dozen tapes that had the
following types of errors:

In a previous inquery to this, I was told to basically restore the
corrupted volumes.  This has apparently worked, as I no longer get these
errors.  My question is, are these tapes permanently damaged, or were
just the files corrupted? Is it ok for me to reinsert these tapes in as
scratch, or is there actually something physically wrong with the tapes
that will cause the same errors to reappear?
