[comp.unix.ultrix] Exabyte 8500 ?

dan@rna.UUCP (Dan Ts'o) (02/07/91)

	Sorry if this has been covered before...
	Can anyone access the merits of the new Exabyte 8500 5Gb 8mm tape
drive ? Is it as solid (hopefully more solid) than the 8200 ? Will it run
off a Sparcstation 2 ? a MVAX running Ultrix ? Does it use the same tapes
as the 8200 ? Can it read 8200 tapes ?
	Thanks. Please email and I'll summarize.
