Not sure what the orgional question was, but...

I am using the Conner tape drive with an Adaptec PCI SCSI and NTBackup;
if I turn on hardware compression in the software, the tape drive hangs.
If I turn off hardware compression in the software, but leave the 
hardware compression jumpered to on on the tape drive, no problems.

Hope that helps.
