Tape drive needed - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

31 Dec 2001

  Ahh, while another thread is busy eating bandwidth on the subject of
terminology...it's a drive, not a drive in a chassis. ;)  I'd have to
find it first; I just moved.  I think I know where it is, though.  I'm
most desperately in need of cash at the moment, but I can't imagine
this drive being worth much.  Got anything cool to swap?

 experience, actually.

 Does anybody have an unneeded Qic24 SCSI tape drive?  I checked Ebay and
 I didn't see anything that I thought was what I needed.  
   This is going back into a very fuzzy memory...but does anyone know if
 an Archive 2150S drive (QIC-150) will read QIC-24 tapes?  Those drives
 are pretty common, and they're standard SCSI so they don't require
 less common interface hardware.  And, I think I have one. :-)
