Re:
Does anyone know the differences between the 7980S and
the 88780A 9track tape
drives?
As far as I know, they're nearly identical, depending upon the options
installed in them.
If you could only have one, which one would you keep?
Depends...if this was for use on an HP 3000 or HP 9000, and all other
things being equal, I'd keep the 7980S ... because the MPE or HP-UX
(or offline) diagnostics might recognize the drive better.
