00h			NO SENSE: Indicates that there is no specific sense key information to be reported
			for the designated logical unit. This would be the case for a successful command or a
			command that received a CHECK CONDITION or a COMMAND TERMINATED
			status because one of the Filemark, EOM, or ILI bits is set to one. For Filemark or
			Setmark detected the drive will be positioned on the EOM side of the mark if the drive
			direction was forward and on the BOM side of the mark if the direction was reverse.

			intervention may be required to correct this condition. Typically this indicates that
			there is no tape loaded. This status is also returned if the drive is currently rewinding
			following REWIND with Immediate bit set and another command is received (except
			for INQUIRY and READ BLOCK LIMITS which return GOOD status).
	04	00	LOGICAL UNIT NOT READY - Media is present within the drive.
			This status is returned to any tape motion command following UNLOAD with
			Immediate bit set or if the Eject button has been pressed by the operator. Also can be
			caused by the command sequence, PREVENT ALLOW MEDIA REMOVAL with
			Prevent bit set followed by UNLOAD. Tape motion commands such as READ,
			WRITE or SPACE are not allowed but Diagnostics which do not access the tape are
			permitted.
	04	01	LOGICAL UNIT IS IN PROCESS OF BECOMING READY - This status is returned
			following a LOAD command with the IMMED bit set for any tape motion command
			before the tape is loaded. Also during the auto load following a tape insertion.
	30	03	CLEANING CARTRIDGE INSTALLED
	3A	00	MEDIUM NOT PRESENT - This status is returned for all tape motion commands
			when there is no media within the tape.
