I am using Fujitsu's 640M mo drives with
  NetBSD/sparc (1.2E)
  NetBSD/i386 (1.2G)
  FreeBSD-2.2.2R (using od(4) driver)
boxes with no problem.

As of NetBSD, please refer to the problem report kern/3790,
kern/3791, kern/3792 submitted by Koji Imada, and the resent
discussion on the tech-kern mailing list.
