I bought a HP T3000 drive today for the Windoze 95 machine and decided to
look at the ftape HOWTO to see if it was supported under Linux.  By golly,
it is.  Sure enough it works when I write to it.

But, when using dump, there are two values that I don't know; density and
size.  The blocks I obtained fro the HOWTO: 58.  I have them set real high
at this point.  If you use the T3000 and dump, please let me know what
values you use.

Also, this drive is capable of doing its own compression.  I didn't see
anything in the HOWTO about what it takes to turn that on, or if it is
always on.  Any hints will be appreciated.

Thanks.
