Hello,
Finally got a tape for this thing and it is DOA -- doesn't seem to do
anything. The lower green LED on the tape drive flashes slow then fast.
Interesting thing though -- when I interrogated the SCSI buss, it came back
as a DEC RZ24L. thought you DEC fans might know what that is, and if it is
a proprietary model that I can't use on my Amiga.
Well, I've used a Exabyte 8500 on my Amiga 3000, so I would think a 8505XL
should work. However, a RZ24L is a low profile 245MB DEC Hard Drive, not a
Tape Drive! That's one confused sounding system!
