I don't have details about your Teac tapedrive nor any drivers for it, but
the mode select you're listing is fairly standard. It sets your Tandberg to
512-byte fixed blocksize mode. Many tape drives support that blocksize, but
if this command gets rejected by your Teac drive then you may want to try 1K
blocks by changing the '02' to '04'. If you run Linux on your PC then you
can use the 'mt setblk' command to set various blocksizes.
