Hi -
 We have an application which requires VERY high data rate -capable
 tape drives... on the order of 12 megabytes per second or better.
 (yes: Twelve... continuous)
We expect the interfacing will be VME, SCSI-2 or better.

I am aware of the Ampex DST600, Sony DIR1000M and Schlumberger DV6210.

I would appreciate vendor and user contact about any of the above, or from
 any other sources i'm not yet aware of.

We expect to need two drives by next summer, with an eventual installation
 of eight or more over the next few years.

Thanks-
