Are these sufficient to write a driver that works with all QIC-117 drives? If so, I withdrawl the aspersion, and would be *very* happy to know where you got the documentation. I would probably even be willing to work on a driver for the IOmega tape drive, if you have a source for the technical documents not under non-disclosure; seeing as it's also QIC-117 and they are standard, it should be easy to write with QIC-117 documentation available. Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org Terry, A FEW standards are available at http://www.qic.org/ in beautiful Santa Barbara, of all places. The QIC-117 spec is among the ones found there. It is my fervent hope that this will be enough information to maintain the ft driver. -mark
