I am running Retrospect 4.0 on a G4 tower with OS 9.0.4 and just replaced my Sony SDT-7000 in an APS external case with a SDT-9000 and am now getting quite a few 206 errors during backup. This is the first backup I have attempted since the replacement and have received 3 so far without completing the backup.
Nothing else is new.
Any ideas why?
Thanks,
Pete

I have been using brand new tapes, appending to the backup.
Sony is not offering the tape diagnostic program for OS 9.
Ran a cleaning cartridge a few times. Brand new drive shouldn't need cleaning?
Don't want to update Retrospect or the OS right now.
I found this other post that makes me think I have a SCSI issue:
