We have a 640 Mb MO drive on evaluation which would be really convenient
for backup of file systems but although the system recognises the SCSI
drive correctly I get a message that the 2048 bytes per sector is
unsupported. Is it possible to get this drive to work? Someone has
suggested a Verbatim 540Mb MO cartridge that has 512 b/sector will work
alright but it would be nice to be able to use the 640 Mb cartridges.

Thanks, Phil.
