My changer has an HP35480A DAT drive. Should I enable drive compression
for use with Amanda and NOT use software compression for backups, or
should I disable the drive compression and use software compression for
backups? The compression on these drives is enabled/disabled with DIP
switches. It can be controlled through software, IF the SCSI driver
supports it and it looks like scsi-changer does not (I have no
indication that I am able to turn the drive compression on/off, even
though the DIP switches are currently set to allow it).
