[ale] Loaner DLT Tape Drive?

[jhubbslist at att.net (Jeff Hubbs)]

I have a Quantum DLT1 tape drive that appears to be broken - I/O errors 
some times but not others.  Was able to tar to it for a while - but it 
got an I/O error at finish and same when trying to read back.  I've 
swapped out cables (w/ termination on the end, BTW) and SCSI controllers 
and I can't get consistent behavior.  Sometimes even "mt -f /dev/st0 
status" will I/O error right after boot.

Does anyone have a known working similar loose DLT drive that I can 
borrow for a little while?  Here's a photo of the unit I'm dealing 
with:  http://picpaste.com/tapedrive-GJOVjvpm.jpg
