I use this in an Overland Data Loaderexpress, and it works fine.

I got the tape type off the amanda.org pages.

In my case the tape library has an interface to enable or disable 
compression.  If you have a standalone tape drive I'm not sure how you 
do it.

this the tape type I'm using :

define tapetype SDLT320 {
     comment "SDLT 320 drive in OverLand Storage Neo 2000 Library"
     length 154753 mbytes
     filemark 28 kbytes
     speed 2349 kps
}
