The DLT2000 products also support the 10-byte MODE SENSE, which is required to
request the VU EEROM Parameter page because of the large amount of data that needs
to be passed back. MODE SENSE (10) can be used to retrieve the other pages as well.
Note that MODE SENSE (10) returns a different format of descriptor data.
