I do not use/have not used the WangTEK 3100. I have one local customer using the 6200 on his A3000 with no problem (he did have a problem with a 150Mb 1/4 inch cartridge tape drive, tho, and switched to one of my 6200's which solved his tape problems. I don't know about 2.0F AmiBack, I still use 2.0B which works fine and I have 2.0H on line to test but it seems to work about the same as far as I can tell. I don't know what changes have been made in between. I find that AmiBack tells me the 6200 wants to use the COMPARE verify mode, not the usual simple verify. No problem for me, I just set AmiBack to use COMPARE mode of verify. It takes a bit longer on the verify side, but I get a pretty good solid idea that my backup is exactly correct – that's what COMPARE does. Maybe you could try COMPARE verifies with your tape. Maybe AmiBack is weird, or maybe since I'm using the 6200 in SCSI-2 mode, I don't know. Anyway, everything works just fine. I don't know how my A3000 customer is using his 6200 with AmiBack (though I'm certain he is using AmiBack with it). Some A3000s have different SCSI chips in 'em. Contact me by Email if you wish more information on my 6200 DAT special for June.
