Dear Sirs from FreeBSD: I got one big problem and I want to you where do you think I must go. I got one 2.0GB DDS 4mm tape and I got there data that I want to recover. You are the FIRST people that I see that say something about this kind of tapes. It got jammed in 2 differents DAT drives and we had to open them to released it, it couldn't be ejected by itself. It stay trying to set the tape in the ready-to-work position but it goes over and over, trying to eject/set the tape. It seems that the drive where the problem began, has melt a kind of soft little pillow by which the tape rolls and it stuck a little of it on the tape. Furthermore, the tape is corrugated in a short part. It's written by a Colorado Tape Backup program for DOS, and when the tape finally stop and I try to do something with it, it send me the message "Error 99 - Tape drive error (192)" I can tell you more details about it, but it could be not necessary. If you need more details, as the drive models or something, just ask.
