Maybe I'm just hallucinating ... but it seems that our
DN3000-C7's get much slower (and I mean *slow* like a snail)
when reading a cartridge tape with RBAK than they do when
writing a cartridge tape with WBAK. I can understand why a
DN5xx would get slow, since the disk and tape controller are
the one and the same, but the DN3000 has seperate controllers
for each device. What is going on here?
