The CAM SCSI tape driver doesn't yet handle older (and many times broken)
tape drives very well. If you've got an older SCSI-1 tape drive, like an
Exabyte 8200 or older QIC-type tape drive, it may not work properly with
the CAM tape driver. This is obviously a known problem, and we're
working on it.
Newer tape drives that are mostly SCSI-2 compliant should work fine.
e.g., DAT (DDS-1, 2 and 3), DLT, and newer Exabyte 8mm drives should
work fine.
If you want to find out if your particular tape drive is supported, the
best way to find out is to try it!
The following drivers were supported under the old SCSI subsystem, but are
