The sould of this when I heard it was so absurd I just had to ask the net
right  away.   We are just installing an Archive Viper 150Mb  tape  drive
into  an i386 running SCO UNIX (current release).  One of the technicians
said  that  it could read 60Mb tapes produced on a 60Mb streamer, but  it
couldn't produce tapes that could be read by the 60Mb.

I'll  be  digging  into the manual when I get into the office  after  the
weekend,  but  I thought I would throw this out now because I can't  wait
for the answer.
