I've done an amtapetype with this drive over a year ago and it returned  this 
tapetype (from amanda.conf)

define tapetype otherdrive {
    comment "just produced by tapetype prog (hardware compression off)"
    length 402432 mbytes
    filemark 0 kbytes
    speed 67629 kps
}

The drive is an LTO3 HP drive.

Does this point to bad hardware? I tried two different tapes to run the 
tapetype - both with the same results. There are no errors in dmesg to report 
scsi problems during the test .. 

What else could it be?
