I am looking to convert a wangtek or archive quik36 tape drive to use scsi. Both manufacturers indicate that it can be done, by buying a board from them. The problem is they want $400, or so for the part. I need a cheaper way to do it. I have seen adaptec boards that claim to do this on the surplus market. Has any one done this type of conversion before? Thanks! Alan Barrow km4ba ..!gatech!kd4nc!km4ba!alan

The Emulex MT-02 is SCSI to QIC-36 The adaptec 3150 (?) also did SCSI to QIC-36, but I had a lot of problems with it (it didn't handle end of media processing well), but my experience with the 3150 is now 3-4 years old...
