3590 J tapes are physically different. As 3490 cartridges can´t be used in 3590, same for 3590 cartridges can´t be loaded in ts1120 drives...

Hello all,

Let me answer the first WHY  ? -  we have over 1000+ 3590 J  tape media and no 
time  or money to migrate to high capacity tape media in 2011.

So, I was hoping to get the FICON improvement + hardware encryption  instantly.

Anyone have actual experience with still reading and writing these older tapes  
on the TS1120 drives
