Michael, I just got Tapeworm_FS today as well and I invested over three hours in trying to get it to work with my WangDAT tape drive (Model 1300XL). Incidentally, this tape drive works fine with Amiback. I can get the tape drive recognized in DirOpus, and it appears even to be copying files from my SCSI disk to tape, but when I attempt to read these files back onto the hard disk, I get a busy icon that stays on forever, and sometimes after many minutes it throws up a "not a DOS disk" message. Never have succeeded in accessing a file written to tape with TWFS. Tom
