we would like to be able to attach a (cheap) 9-track, 1600bpi
tape deck to a vaxstation 3100 via the scsi port.  there seem
to be several vendors out there (eg qualstar) with
scsi decks; anyone had any experience using one one of
these on the vs3100 under ultrix (3.1)?

is there any hope that dec's tmscp drivers (tk50, tu8x) will
work?  has anyone written their own driver?

tia for any info...
