Hello:

Has any one hooked up an Exabyte EXB-8500 (5 GB 8mm tape drive) to their NeXT?   
Will I need any "drivers".  I called a local dealer asking for pricing and  
availability and he said that I might need a driver.   NextWorld (Fall 1992)  
didn't mention anything about drivers, just software to get around the UNIX  
dump, restore, and tar.
