We are in the process of obtaining several Unisys 6000/65 systems
with 1GB+ disk drives (don't have the exact storage amount, sorry).
As far as I know, these systems come with the (Unisys) standard 150MB
cartridge tape drives and will be running SysVR3.2.  Because some of 
our databases exceed 300MB, we would like to find a compatible tape 
drive that can write over, say 1GB, to a single tape.  Then we could use
cron to run unattended backups instead of having an operator come in to 
do it.

I have talked with the people from Contemporary Cybernetics Group about 
their 8mm tape drives, but that was about a year ago.  What I would like
to ask the net is, has anyone had experience with Cybernetics or any 
other large-capacity tape drives on Unisys 6000 series computers, 
specifically the 6000/65.  It's not that I'm too lazy to dial a bunch
of phone numbers and talk to companies about their tape drives (or
maybe it is :-), I'd just like to hear about real experiences.

Thanks heaps!
