Oops, sorry I left that out:  AIT3
What is different about writing filemarks (which fails) and writing large
streams of data (which works)?

Couldn't tell you. But I have seen tape drives able to write small amounts of data but not large streams that got better with cleaning. Not AIT mind you (my AIT library cleans itself as needed), but it's worth a shot before springing for a new drive.
