The Wangtek tape drive compatibility problems are due to a 'disagreement' between the way the Wangtek tape drive handles disconnect/reconnect and the way the WD SCSI controller chip handles it. GVPSCSI.DEVICE tries to handle it can, but turning it off is the best way to avoid problems. The Unexpected Status errors are generated by he WD chip itself and passed on to GVSCSI.DEVICE for reporting. The numbers are sort of like GURU meditation numbers, where the second number's definition is different based on what the first number is. The list of all of them can be found in any WD devices book. By the way, WD stands for Western Digital. Gary Nush Product Manager, Amiga Division Great Valley Products, Inc.
