WARNING: This drive does not meet the SCSI-2 specifications. The drive locks up completely in response to a SCSI MODESELECT command unless there is a formatted tape in the drive. Before using this drive, set the tape blocksize with # mt -f /dev/st0ctl.0 blocksize 1024 Before using a mini cartridge for the first time, the mini cartridge must be formated.
FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE and earlier: # /sbin/scsi -f /dev/rst0.ctl -s 600 -c '4 0 0 0 0 0' (Alternatively, fetch a copy of the scsiformat shell script from FreeBSD 2.1.5/2.2.) FreeBSD 2.1.5 and later: # /sbin/scsiformat -q -w /dev/rst0.ctl Right now, this drive cannot really be recommended for FreeBSD. Reported by: Bob Beaulieu. The boot message identifier for this drive is EXABYTE EXB-8200 252X type 1 removable SCSI 1 This is an 8mm tape drive. Native capacity is 2.3GB. Data transfer rate is 270kB/s. This drive is fairly slow in responding to the SCSI bus during boot.
A custom kernel may be required (set SCSIDELAY to 10 seconds). There are a large number of firmware configurations for this drive, some have been customized to a particular vendor's hardware.
The firmware can be changed via EPROM replacement. Production of this drive has been discontinued. Reported by: Michael Smith. The boot message identifier for this drive is HP C1533A 9503 type 1 removable SCSI 2. This is a DDS-2 tape drive.
DDS-2 means hardware data compression and narrower tracks for increased data capacity. Native capacity is 4GB when using 120m tapes. This drive supports hardware data compression. Data transfer rate is 510kB/s.
This drive is used in Hewlett-Packard's SureStore 6000eU and 6000i tape drives and C1533A DDS-2 DAT drive. The drive has a block of 8 dip switches.
The proper settings for FreeBSD are: 1 ON; 2 ON; 3 OFF; 4 ON; 5 ON; 6 ON; 7 ON; 8 ON. Switch 1 switch 2 Result On On Compression enabled at power-on, with host control On Off Compression enabled at power-on, no host control Off On Compression disabled at power-on, with host control Off Off Compression disabled at power-on, no host control Switch 3 controls MRS (Media Recognition System). MRS tapes have stripes on the transparent leader. These identify the tape as DDS (Digital Data Storage) grade media. Tapes that do not have the stripes will be treated as write-protected.
Switch 3 OFF enables MRS. Switch 3 ON disables MRS.
See and for more information on configuring this drive. Warning: Quality control on these drives varies greatly. One FreeBSD core-team member has returned 2 of these drives. Neither lasted more than 5 months. Reported by: Stefan Esser. The boot message identifier for this drive is HP HP35470A T503 type 1 removable SCSI 2 Sequential-Access density code 0x13, variable blocks. This is a DDS-1 tape drive.
DDS-1 is the original DAT tape format. Native capacity is 2GB when using 90m tapes. Data transfer rate is 183kB/s. The same mechanism is used in Hewlett-Packard's SureStore tape drive, C35470A DDS format DAT drive, C1534A DDS format DAT drive and HP C1536A DDS format DAT drive. The HP C1534A DDS format DAT drive has two indicator lights, one green and one amber.
The green one indicates tape action: slow flash during load, steady when loaded, fast flash during read/write operations. The amber one indicates warnings: slow flash when cleaning is required or tape is nearing the end of its useful life, steady indicates an hard fault. (factory service required?) Reported by Gary Crutcher. The boot message identifier for this drive is HP HP35470A 9 09 type 1 removable SCSI 2 This is a DDS-1 tape drive. DDS-1 is the original DAT tape format. Native capacity is 2GB when using 90m tapes.
Data transfer rate is 183kB/s. The same mechanism is used in Hewlett-Packard's SureStore tape drive, C35470A DDS format DAT drive, C1534A DDS format DAT drive, and HP C1536A DDS format DAT drive.
Warning: Quality control on these drives varies greatly. One FreeBSD core-team member has returned 5 of these drives. None lasted more than 9 months. Reported by: David Dawes (9 09).
The boot message identifier for this drive is HP HP35480A 1009 type 1 removable SCSI 2 Sequential-Access density code 0x13. This is a DDS-DC tape drive. DDS-DC is DDS-1 with hardware data compression. DDS-1 is the original DAT tape format. Native capacity is 2GB when using 90m tapes.
It cannot handle 120m tapes. This drive supports hardware data compression. Please refer to the section on for the proper switch settings. Data transfer rate is 183kB/s. This drive is used in Hewlett-Packard's SureStore and tape drives and C35480A DDS format DAT drive. This drive will occasionally hang during a tape eject operation ( mt offline).
Pressing the front panel button will eject the tape and bring the tape drive back to life. WARNING: HP 0 only. On at least two occasions this tape drive when used with FreeBSD 2.1.0, an IBM Server 320 and an 2940W SCSI controller resulted in all SCSI disk partitions being lost. The problem has not be analyzed or resolved at this time. There are at least two significantly different models: one is a DDS-1 and the other DDS-2.
The DDS-1 version is SDT-5000 3.02. The DDS-2 version is SONY SDT-5000 327M. The DDS-2 version has a 1MB cache. This cache is able to keep the tape streaming in almost any circumstances. The boot message identifier for this drive is SONY SDT-5000 3.02 type 1 removable SCSI 2 Sequential-Access density code 0x13 Native capacity is 4GB when using 120m tapes. This drive supports hardware data compression.
Data transfer rate is depends upon the model or the drive. The rate is 630kB/s for the SONY SDT-5000 327M while compressing the data. For the SONY SDT-5000 3.02, the data transfer rate is 225kB/s. In order to get this drive to stream, set the blocksize to 512 bytes ( mt blocksize 512) reported by Kenneth Merry.
SONY SDT-5000 327M information reported by Charles Henrich. Reported by: Jean-Marc Zucconi. The boot message identifier for this drive is TANDBERG TDC 3600 =08: type 1 removable SCSI 2 This is a QIC tape drive. Native capacity is 150/250MB. This drive has quirks which are known and work around code is present in the scsi tape device driver. Upgrading the firmware to XXX version will fix the quirks and provide SCSI 2 capabilities.
Data transfer rate is 80kB/s. IBM and Emerald units will not work. Replacing the firmware EPROM of these units will solve the problem. Reported by: Michael Smith. The boot message identifier for this drive is WANGTEK 5525ES SCSI REV7 3R1 type 1 removable SCSI 1 density code 0x11, 1024-byte blocks This is a QIC tape drive.
Native capacity is 525MB. Data transfer rate is 180kB/s. The drive reads 60, 120, 150, and 525MB tapes.
The drive will not write 60MB (DC600 cartridge) tapes. In order to overwrite 120 and 150 tapes reliably, first erase ( mt erase) the tape. 120 and 150 tapes used a wider track (fewer tracks per tape) than 525MB tapes. The ``extra' width of the previous tracks is not overwritten, as a result the new data lies in a band surrounded on both sides by the previous data unless the tape have been erased. This drives quirks are known and pre-compiled into the scsi tape device driver. Other firmware revisions that are known to work are: M75D Reported by: Marc van Kempen REV73R1 Andrew Gordon M75D.
