Here is what I use on stinit.def for a Seageta DAT72 unit, in case you
need it:

 {
              mode1 blocksize=512 compression=1
              mode2 blocksize=1024 compression=1
              mode3 blocksize=512 compression=0
              mode4 blocksize = 1024 compression=0 
 }

Pretty simples and direct.
