1. Sony SDT-7000 SCSI DAT Drive - anyone using one of these?

I just picked up one of these very cheap, new but with no docs.
I have it attached to an ASUS SC-200 and all seems well enough.
I'm not altogether thrilled with the throughput I get though.
There are some little switches on the bottom and I've got a PDF
manual indicating which way to switch them for this or that UNIX
version.  Naturally there is no indication if any particular setting
is desirable under FreeBSD 2.2.7.

So, does anyone else have one of these and can you offer any advise
on these "unix compatibility" switches.

I'm seeing ~500K/sec throughput, but it should be doing >800K.

Can anyone offer any hints on magic SCSI configuration pages I
should look into?

Thanks,
