I noticed a thread on the freebsd-hardware list from a little while 
back re. getting a DDS-3 drive to work with DDS-2 and DDS-1 
tapes... I have the same problem, our new HP DDS-3 drive works 
flawlessly with new DDS-3 tapes, *appears* to write to old tapes 
from my DDS-1 drive (i.e. the write completes without complaining), 
but cannot read them back (fails with messages like this: "st0: 
MEDIUM ERROR asc:9,0 Track following error field replaceable 
unit: 2").

Did anyone ever find a solution to this?

Thanks,

Richard
