->MRI machines work well, if you can borrow one for 30 sec. BTW, you can
->do a LOT of tapes in that time. Great for doing ~10,000 3480 cartridges.
Anyone thinking of trying this - don't. There are 4 visible metallic
(ferrous) screws on the backside of these cartridges. If not secured
those tapes will head straight for the magnet, probably smash, and (the
screws at least) stay there until the liquid helium charge is removed
(not cheap). Whomever you borrowed it from would be livid. If it's a
medical facility you'd never get those tapes near an MRI if normal
safety procedures are in place.
