Don't the DDS-4 drives (and other quality drives) automatically read and
compare when writing.  There are separate read and write heads which
allows write errors to be detected immediately.  

The cheap Travan drives do not check when writing.  There's only one
head.

I've assumed that a verification pass was only essential with single
head drives.
