Actually, yes- would you? *All* of my tape drives (including an Archive
QIC-150) have no troubles like this- with the exception of the lone Emulex
MT-02 for which I don't think I have a working QIC-36 drive- and I won't
support the MT-02 because it has all NULLs for INQUIRY data.

I'll send separate mail for mailing info.
