- Hi all,
- A friend has a little problem with some TK-50 tapes... Yeah, he put them
- in a drive,:-( , and the drive SEEMS to have erased the header/pre-amble
- from the tapes the drive has ee replaced and now he can't read the tapes.
-
- So, is it AT ALL possile to recover the its off the tapes i this case?
- Can the TK-50 be conned into reading the tape and ignoring the lack of
- pre-amble? Can someone in DEC do this for them if need be? They have
- a lot of mass-spectrometer data they realy would like back.
-
- Reply by mail, will summarize...
