Dan,
I'm not sure about the actual capacity, but I recently did a Save-21 on a
170 with about 28G of disk used on 3 8mm (6390) tapes.  Went over onto
number 3 just a little.  So...I believe it'll do 14G, or close, compressed,
also.  I'm using IBM labeled 8mm tapes from 3X Warehouse (or whatever it's
called now).  Their catalog also claims the 7-14G numbers.

Hey, I get extra points...I got your name right (I think?).  But I am
probably guilty of responding to that Dale guy in the past...
