First thing to mention is that I am posting this from a guest account. The organization that I am posting from is in no way affiliated with this announcement. Gigatrend Incorporated, a 4mm Dat tape drive manufacturer is looking for a few beta sites in the Sun workstation environment, preferably in the San Diego area but is willing to consider the continental United States. The product is a 4mm tape drive using Digital audio tape (DAT) technology. Capacity is in excess of 1 Gigabyte per tape cartridge. Transfer rate is 192kbyte per sec sustained and 1.5 Mbytes per sec burst. Scsi, Pertec, and Qic-02 interfaces are available. Only the very experienced Beta site tester should request a pertec interface. Please do not contact me via email. You will get a quicker response by directing all inquiries to: GigaTrend Incorporated Tel (619) 931-9122 2234 Rutherford Road Carlsbad, CA 92008 Attn: Chris Kevlahan Thanks.
