Folks,
I am "playing" with a small VAX and want to install software onto it, some
of which are in SIMH ".tap" format files. I was thinking it would be nice
to
have a SCSI Tape emulator that worked a bit like the
USB floppy emulators
that are about.
So it would plug into the SCSI bus and allow ".TAP" (and other tape
formats)
stored on some kind of flash memory, say USB or SD
card perhaps, to be
read
by real hardware.
Does this sound usefull to any one? Any other thoughts on how this could
be
achieved?

Would it not be a SMOP to get a SCSI2SD device to emulate a tape drive?
