I have heard from several people that the Amiga 3000's scsi controller has some problems. My specific problem has to do with a WANGTEK SCSI (ES5525) Tape drive.. At one time the drive worked on my amiga. It still works on my PC but on my amiga I get errors from BRU like 'cannot open tape'. I get this error with all tapes including new tapes. I am assuming this has something to do with the internal scsi controller. Am I probably correct? What can I do to expalin the problem to commodore? Does CBM need to re-engineer the controller? I would really like this to work again, and if CBM cannot fix this (if it is CBM problems) I will be getting rid of the Amiga. Please help..
