This won't work.  The 6157 tape drive must be attached to a 6157 bus
card.  This card will only fit in a Micro Channel machine.  If you
attempt to attach this drive to any other bus card, it will not work
properly.  The 6157 tape drive and bus card work fine in SCO UNIX and
SCO Xenix for Micro Channel architecture machines.

Guess you're going to have to give it back.
