You might consider the Seagate STT8000 series in a scsi form. It stores
4gb natively on a Travan cartridge. They go for about $160.00, tapes are
preformatted (servo type) and go for $20.00 or so.
I've had hands on many of the ide models and own an external scsi version
myself.

Jeff

Hi everybody,
For those of you who've read my notes on the MIPS
RISComputers I'm trying
to get going, I ask this because I may want to replace the QIC-120 drive
that's missing from one of them with a different model.
I'd like some opinions on tape drives. The drive
would need to plug into
a SCSI interface, and I'd like it to fit in a 5.25" half-height bay.
That's pretty much all I'd require from it. It would be nice if the
drive held at least as much as a QIC-120 (about 120MB, it so happens ;),
and was inexpensive and easy to get used.
Any suggestions? What's the going price on DDS-1
these days?
Regards,
Chris
