First the obvious is to clean the drives after that run Quantum's
DLTsage application.  It will tell you the state of your drives.

We have an ATL P3000 library with 5 DLT drives.  Just recently, backups
that happen to land on two particular drives among the five seem to run
much more slowly than expected. Anyone else seen anything like this,
please, and can suggest a remedy?
