have two of these.
Something rings a bell abou this one, but I can't think of what it might
be. Anything inside of the box?

Corporation" and "Model HH CTS", I

head in
there that bears a slight resemblance to a video head,
but smaller.
Most likely an 8 mm drive (since this is what Exabyte specialized in). The
connection's SCSI and pretty standard. You can use 8 mm videocam carts in
these (in spite of what Exabyte said). Capacity ranged from 2-8 GB,
depending on model.
