Back when I was looking for 150 Meg 1/4" SCSI tape drives (and found the Archive's at IME), my local Wyle Labs rep had Wangtek 5150ES tape drives for $675. It seemed like the price was negotiable (to a point). I was offered $650 if I bought 2 or more. These were also bare drives for internal mounting. I don't have my Wangtek Reseller list handy. Check for White Pages for you local Wyle Labs. They are Authorized Wangtek Resellers. Again, I have no affiliation with Wangtek or Wyle Labs. -- Jeff Johnson 10926 Jollyville #1420, Austin, TX 78759 Computer Consultant (512) 343-0675 (512) 750-UNIX jjohnson@peyote.cactus.org {uunet|uiucuxc}!cs.utexas.edu!peyote!jjohnson
