I have a bunch of older Panasonic MX3501s that work fine and recently bought
a
$49 unit from JDR that had the jumper so I tried it and it worked.
They should also work on VMS... I"m going to dig
out the VS3100 this
weekend to load it. Just got a DEC DSP3105 drive.
Thats a Panasonic (aka Masushita or some such).
Likely the best giveaway is any drive with a jumper for selecting block
size or slower than 4x plus SCSI is likely a winner.
