All

I have three SCSI 9-track tape drives that I'd like to make available  
for free.

They're 6250/1600/800 capable, rackmountable ( but I don't have the  
slides ), and all three I believe are working.  I last used one of  
them about 3 years ago.  They are "front loaders" about 1 foot high,  
about 36 inches deep...   the tapes autothread and mount up, but it's  
handy to be able to get to the top of the entire unit just in case  
the autothreading feature doesn't quite work.  SCSI interface uses  
50pin Centronics connectors.  These drives worked well on SGI and SUN  
machines, I've never tried one on anything else.

In any event they're located in Tucson, AZ, and are yours for the  
taking...   I have no idea how much it would cost to ship these  
fellows, they're pretty heavy.
