Anyone have any information on WangDAT's DAT drive and its use
with a Sun IPX?  This looks like a good deal for a DAT w/ compression.

WangDAT Model 3200
2GB/4GB (max 8GB w/ DDS-DC compression)
hardware/software compression
183-732KB/second data rate
SCSI-1 or SCSI-2
Builtin head cleaner (?)
$1095 + $150 for enclosure

I am hoping to use this to directly backup SunOS 4.1.2.  It
doesnt look like SUN has direct DAT support.  I *assume* w/ some
minor software configs this combination will work?

thanks for any information

nick


ps: I will b out of town until 11/9/92.
