Anyways, yeah I am looking for an IBM 9348 scsi tape drive. I was looking into using it
in a little IBM 360 emulator that runs on Ubuntu but mainly it's for bragging rights
(Chicks dig guys with big drives). Now while it is samller it's still hjeavy (if you
alrready have one than you understand me here) so if you want to part with yours PLEASE
promise me that it works before I shell out. It would be nice to get one locally too.
If you're flexible on the packaging, there are a number of SCSI 6250 bpi
9-track tape drives that were offered by DEC, HP, etc. Many were shipped
in tabletop trim instead of rackmount. A search for eBay auction
#220154267195 will show you such a unit from Overland Data currently
located in Allantown, PA.
Good luck,
