Has anyone found a way to use Archive's 40 MB floppy Tape under Xenix.

Our experience shows it's faster, less noisy, and more reliable than the
'standard' Irwin 40MB units we've used. The Irwin drives with Xenix
have been a source of a lot of agravation over the past 6 months. Drivers
from SCO, and Irwin did not work properly, and we've had to resort to
by pre-formatted tapes for use with the Irwin drives, because of formatting
problems.

The Archive 40MB floppy Tape AT drive is very solid, we'd like to
use those with our Xenix systems.
