  My apologies, since I'm sure this has been asked before (many times?),
however I'm a new subscriber.  Does anyone have a reliably working 8mm
tape drive on the SCSI port of a DECSTATION-5000?  If so, which manufacturer,
and how do you configure it into the system.
  The DS-5000 I'll be getting in the next few weeks will by our first UNIX
system, so apologies for my ignorance in advance.
