Good day.

We have a Win2K SP4 server with 9840s installed via an STK 9740
autochanger, NW 6.1.3.  I'm wondering if anyone knows of a utility
(reliable) that can query the media directly in order to determine the
block size.

I've use 3 or 4 different versions of the MT.EXE command and none of
them show the appropriate stats.  They show the drive's min / max values
but NOT the media's stats, at least not where block size is an issue.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
