RE: What is the difference between 7208-341 and 7208-342?

["Carl Galgano" <cgalgano2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dave, I do not know the answer to your question, but last year I mistakenly
bid on an IBM 3570 tape drive.  I did not read the copy close enough and buy
the time I won the bid, it was a model 21 (I think).  After some googling, I
found that it was a 3570 built for Win and RS6000.  Since I made the error,
I took shipment, and was surprised to find out that it worked perfectly to
the AS400 I hooked it up to.  YMMV.

Folks:

I know the 7208-341 tape drive attaches to RS/600 and 7208-342 attaches 
to AS/400.  Besides this obvious difference, is there any other 
differences?  Can the 341 attach to the AS/400 and vice versa?  Both use 
Exabyte Mammoth 8900 HVD SCSI drive under the cover.  Both use IDRC for 
compression.   I suspect some firmware (FECODE & EECODE)  differences 
but what else?  Has anybody used the 341?

Thank You
