I have a Sun/Fuji 9-track 1/2" tape drive that needs a controller to run 
on a PC.  The tape drive utilizes a Pertec interface and the Fuji drive 
is a model M2444X.  The best price to date is from 800-TAPE-DRIVE of $495 
for controller, cable, and software.  The controller is expected to run 
on a 486 CPU.  I'm interested in anyone who has a used controller to get 
rid-off.  If you have any leads in any inexpensive alternatives please 
let me know.

If anyone can help me in locating any one of the above options, I would be 
very grateful.

Please e-mail any info that you may be able to provide.

Thanks,
Olivier
