I duspect it's *all* ATAPI tape units. Mine (Conner) is quite a bit older
than the other (Seagate) one that began this thread. And ide-tape has no
problem with either drive. Perhaps a whitelist rather than a blacklist here.
Meanwhile, my old Conner tape unit is several hundred miles away from me at present.
Cheers
