This is not my problem.
I have noticed it happens when the tape backup software dose eject on the tape. The tape is not
ejected and the harddrive get this error. It only happens whit an eject. everything works fine up
to this point.
I can do as many backups I want as long as I can fit it on one tape thus avoiding an
eject.(unload).
