JF,
Recently you sent me your tapetype for an lto4 drive. I have a question about the length parameter. An lto-4 tape has a non-compress length of ~800GB and in compress about double. I know these are max values. In you answer below you have length set to ~772GB. If I am going to run in compress mode so should the length value be double or ~1.4TB.
