Are you perhaps
thinking of the Fujitsu M2444A and similar drives?
Not the M2444 (I've got one and it's heavy, but I still managed to
get it into a rack all by my lonesome), but a 2000-series. My grey
matter is probably starting to leak out my ears, but I thought that
some of the small R2R CDC drives were made by Fujitsu. Maybe I'm
just remembering wrong.
The last CDC tape drives I had any regular contact with were 65x
series--cost reduced garbage and generally inferior to the old 60x
drives.
