I have an old unix system, which has a tape drive and a hard drive. The hard 
drive is a PC compatible ST506. What I am trying to find out is whether the 
tape drive is also PC compatible. 

The tape drive has a 50 pin connector - is this a PC 'standard' and if so 
what type of card do I need to use it. Also what about software?

Any help would be appreciated - please E-MAIL if possible.
