I have 2 HP C1533 DAT tape drives for sale. These tape drives were removed 
from brand new machines and were never used. They are guaranteed to be in 
working order when you receive them. They do not come with cables, software or 

mounting hardware. They are standard SCSI II devices and will fit into an 
ordinary 3 1/2 drive bay. 

Contact me via e-mail at cwaters@iu.net or call Chuck at 407-953-4677 if you 
have any questions. 

I will ship USPS COD next day.

I have 4 of these units and it's first come, first served!


Here are the specs straight from HP's web site:
