Hi,
does someone know which tape drive model was used in a Zilog System 8000?
Bade on the Hardware Ref. Manual some characteristics:
Storage Capacity (Unformatted) 17.2 Mbytes max.
Read/Write speed 30 inches per second
Rewrind/Search speed 90 inches per second
Tracks 4
Recording density 6400 BPI
Data Transfer Rate 192,00 Bits/sec
Error Rates <1 Error in 10^8 Bits
From the Connector point of views it looks like there
are 25 different
signals (no idea how much pins):
SLD, RDY, WND, FLG, LPS, FUP, BSY, EWS, RWD, REV, FWD, HSP, WEN, SL1,
SL2, SL4, SLG, RNZ, RDS, DAD, WDE, WNZ, TR2, WDS, TR1
Does this sound familiar to someone?
