Has anyone successfully used non-DEC SCSI tape (cartridge) drives with
VMS? If so, what types have you been successful with? Travan? DAT? 8mm?
Which models?

I just hooked up an HP SureStore TR4, and it's recognized, the device is
an HP T4000s. But when I try to access it (INIT a tape, etc) I get a
"parity error". I don't have any Travan-4 tapes though, just Travan-5
tapes, so that's what I tried... Could that cause a parity error?
