All that said, when using an LTO drive, you may have hardware compression enabled anyway, because the hw compr algorithm in those
drives does not expand uncompressable data.
Maybe the amtapetype message should be revised to something like:
hardware compression off (or drive uses a dynamic compression algorithm)
Actually the message is still correct. amtapetype does detect if hw compr is enabled. And you would notice the effect if you wrote without software compression. The fact that the algorithm does not expand data is something else.
