I told the store what the tape was and they didn't know about it.  The tape
you gave me is a "Citadel 1/4 inch cartridge, DC2000, 40MB, 205ft." and the
back says 2040.  Now, I assume that the "40" part is 40MB; so I would assume
that the 2080 would've worked -- it didn't.  This 2120 tape says it's 120MB,
so I assume the "120" part is the 120MB.  Therefore, I assume that only a
2040 tape will work in this drive.
