OK - I have concluded that this drive is a waste of time, so I yanked it
and replaced it with an old DAT.  If my Exabyte 8200 can be useful to
anyone in writing/fixing a driver, let me know and I'll ship it anywhere
in the US. If I ever get it back, that would be nice, but it would be hard
to be heartbroken about never seeing it again.

Thanks,
