I'm guessing bad tape or tape drive drive, unless .....
Is it possible the FWSCSI adapter that your mod20 is attached to has
old firmware.
Must be rev. 3636 or newer. 3728 is best, but will work with 3636.
You mention the system is a 939.
Is the mod20 attached to the FWSCSI port of the MFIO card?
Or is it to an optional add-on FWSCSI card?
If the latter, it is possible you could have older firmware.
