Depends on the drive. If you got an Echo drive (SCxx), you're right.
The ADR drives--yes, they all use ADR tape technology, but confusingly
there's also a model line called "ADR"--on the other hand, are
ordinary SCSI drives, according to the OnStream representative I
talked to at CeBIT. For instance, they're certified to work with
the plain Linux SCSI tape driver.

A few days ago I asked whether anybody's running an ADR50 successfully
off a FreeBSD box but received no response. Actually I'm not sure
the ADR50 is in the stores yet.
