9427 simply uses 7208 7/14GB drives, so here's a comparison of 7208 (222
or 234) 7GB to 3590:

Tape Drive              Un-Compressed transfer rate
7208-222/234                    500K/sec (.5M/sec)
3590-B11                        9M/sec                                  
3570                            2.2M/sec


Note - also the new 7208-342 8mm:
                                3M/sec
