ve been successful with non-DEC DAT, 8mm, and DLT
drives.
I just got a Seagate Python DDS-2 DAT drive, which works OK (well, VMS
handles it ok, but I've been getting a lot of drive errors... Think I
got sold a bill of goods on Ebay). I still haven't been able to get the
HP t4000s Travan-4 drive to work, although I know that drive is fine. I
think it's a hopeless cause. No big deal -- I'd rather have DAT anyway,
the tapes are much cheaper.
