[comp.periphs] IBM 3480 type cartridge drive for Unix system?

keith@sequoia.execu.com (Keith Pyle) (06/28/90)

A significant portion of our customer base are in the IBM world and a number
of them are switching to the IBM 3480 tape cartridge due to its high
capacity.  Therefore, we are getting requests for distribution tapes on
the 3480 cartridge.  Does anyone have knowledge of or pointers to suppliers
of such devices for a Unix system?  Since we have a Sequent S81, various
DECs, various Suns, an HP 9000/825, etc., we have several options for a host
machine.

I am aware of the DEC TA90 device, but it is considerably more than we need.
