Howdy all,

I installed a HP/Colorado T3000 tape drive in our list-server (Gerry) late
last year. It uses Travan "TR-3" tapes. Works just fine, the only drag being
that I can only fit 1.6 Gigs on a single tape since the native NT Backup
utility does not support compression.

I saw a bunch of "TR-3 Extra" tapes for sale on eBay. They have a capacity
of 2.2 Gigs without compression. They are claimed to work in any tape drive
that uses the regular "TR-3" tapes, but I can't seem to find much info on
the 'net about them.

Has anybody tried them?

Please respond to vanagon-request@gerry.vanagon.com since my personal email
is still down.

Thanks,
TomC
