John, That's an interesting point about the drive's built-in switches that may not be visible in its eventual casing. My drives came already mounted in a library, so they do have a shell that makes them hot-swappable, which could be removed to get access to the drive itself. But as you said, I've already got a workable SW solution to override the default setting every time the st module is unloaded/loaded, so it's moot. ;) Thanks for the info. Eric
