<p><b>Notes:</b>
This device driver is a simple DOS interface to the Adaptec Advanced
SCSI Programming Interface (ASPI). It provides the following device
names as access to the SCSI tape, 'RMTx' (rewind on close) and
'NRMTx' (NO rewind on close) where x can go from 0 to 3. There may
also be the following names 'MTx' and 'NMTx' which default to 1024
byte blocks. The names may also have a '$' appended to try and make
them unique from file names of 'RMT0' etc..
Once opend these devices must be put into RAW mode
