The WangTek 6130 FS drive is supported by the FWB hammerTape driver,
that is availeble commercially - here in Germany.

The driver is a bit stupid (to emulate the Apple Tape Backup 40) but is
said to work.


A related thing: I'm looking for a driver that supports the Tandberg
Data TDC 3640 drive (120 MB). TDC 3660 or 3620 drvers should work...
