    Hi Tim,

    I did connect with them and they were incredibly helpful and thorough. Unfortunately, we determined this was a hardware issue. I sent it for repair and they told me the drive was essentially toast. We will be upgrading to a new machine. I am just unsure as to which one at the moment. As long as LTO-6 is backwards compatible, at least being able to restore from old tapes, I will likely go that route. Thanks for your help and responses.

    That’s the good thing about LTO – LTO-6 with read and write LTO-5 and read LTO-4. Basically – write two generations and read three.
