DAT Drives

Hi !

I have been using a DDS1 drive for a while now, however I want to expand my library of tapes for certain days. Incremental and full backups.

I have purchased a box of 10 Maxell DDS-3 125m/12gb tapes for knockdown price on an auction.

Upon inserting one of these tapes in the DDS drive is reads it and doesnt complain. However, I dont want to format it incase it ruins it.

The moral of this question is;

Will my DDS3 tapes work with my DDS drive ??

If anyone wants to know its an Archive Python SCSI external drive. Unsure of the model number.

Thanx !
