I just attempted to read back a dump from a DAT tape to test our backup strategy and disturbingly, the file which read back from the tape was corrupted. The directory was intact but when the dump was extracted, there was a checksum error on one file and when comparing the extracted tree with the original, at least one file had been corrupted. My DAT drive probes as a 'WangDAT Model 3400DX' and it is set to use compression. Does anyone have an idea what is happening? -- Doug Rabson, RenderMorphics Ltd.
