I have several new high-speed tape backup units purchased for a
contract which fell through.  Selling them for what I paid for them.
All units have been tested in good condition and come with the tape
unit, controller card, manuals, software, and tapes are $5 apiece.
Comes with Backit 4 DOS commericial backup software.

They are QIC-36 units which utilize a dedicated controller card and
an internal Wangtek tape unit which installs in a 5-1/4" half-height
drive bay.  These units backup at 10MB/min.  That's 5-8 times faster
than a typical QIC-80 CMS unit, plus you don't have to format the
tapes first!

Unit uses the DC600A or DC300XLP tapes which are also commonly used
in Sun/Sparc/HP and other Unix tape backup units.  I have a large
quantity of DC300XLP tapes which were written once for distributing
software and are fully tested.  They are only $5/apiece.  These
300XLP tapes fit 90MB/tape, while the 600As fit 120MB/tape.

So, if you want the FAST convenience of a 10MB/min tape backup unit
complete with tapes at $5/apiece, get one while they last!

Shipping not included in price.  Will ship COD or prepaid (prefer COD).
