6540.0. "TZK20 questions.." by BRLLNT::MONTAQUILA (Cover me, I'm changing lanes!) Wed Apr 02 1997 11:42

    1)  Is the TZK20 QIC tape drive compatible with earlier media?
    
    2)  Are there any pointers available for docs?
    
    3)  Last update from Aug. '96 indicated WNT 4.0 support soon.
        Is this still true or is it now supported?

    It will READ backward QIC-3210 format only. NOT QIC-80 format.

    Check Spec at SUBSYS::LCA:[SPECS.TAPE].

    WNT 4.0 will support TZK20 in PC mode only for now. TZK20 has a
    jumper/switch that allow you to change INQUIRY strings. PC mode is
    native Tandberg device, DEC mode is DIGITAL device.
