Hi netlanders,

I recently bought a tape drive from Colorado Memory System, model
"JUMBO" 40-60 MB. Because I would like to directly access the drive
using my own programs (I have already written a TAR alike program which
I want to reuse with this tape), I am looking about the technical
information on how to do it. Basically I would need reading/writing
blocks of data. The tape is connected using the Floppy Disk controller.

I am experienced C and Assembler programmers.

Please mail any answer directly to my mail address.

Thanks in advance,
	Antonio Pastore
