The confusion is caused by going from a 7331 to a 3570. In 3570 and 3590
(Magstar family) drives, the volumes all come with an extra alphabetic char
that denotes the cartridge type.   All 3570s have the character  F which is
stripped off.  The application only sees the numeric portion of the labels.
