If you are able to drive the tapedrive at it's maximum speed, it will take about 2 hours to read a tape 'cover to cover', mostly across all technologies. Reclamation is basically that, reading a tape from end to end and writing the data onto a new tape (unless you have you have very large db files on your tape in which case the tape can actually speedup during a forward seek). > > Doug Thorneycroft > Senior Systems Analyst > Computer Technology Section > County Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County > 1955 Workman Mill Road > Whittier, CA 90601 > (562) 699-7411 Ext. 1058 > Fax.
