Are DC600A 600' tapes the largest that can be used on QIC-60 tape drives?
I see DC6150, DC6250 tapes advertised that can store 150 and 250 Megabytes
compared to the 60 Megabytes of the DC600A.

What are the differences between DC600A's and DC6XXX tapes. Is the
recording method totally different, etc, or is it just tape length?

Thanks
