wow! after noting the "discontinued" label at the Ratoc homepage, I
looked at Epay... were they always *that* expensive?

Does anyone know if a usb --> scsi adapter
might allow me to connect an
hp 9-track tape drive (7980s) to a computer running windows-7?
Has anyone done it?
Any pointers (drivers etc)?
I believe they existed, long ago. USB1 ones were terribly terribly
slow. By the USB2 era, SCSI was disappearing, but they might exist.
USB3, forget it.
But I suspect that a device that old (we're talking
turn-of-the-century) won't have drivers for Win7. You *might* have a
chance of getting it working on 32-bit Win7.
E.g.

Note the supported OSes.
This looks more promising...
