I've got another need to connect a 1/2" 9 track Pertec compatable tape
drive into a Sun 3 SCSI. Anyone done this? I'm trying to build a
machine to manufacture software on Sun 1/4" cartridges
and 1/2" tapes. I'd like it to be a low cost Sun 3/50 and use the SCSI
bus to drive both tape drives. It looks like I  can get the 1/4" cartrdge
drive connected easily, I'm concerned with how to connect a 1/2" tape
drive with a pertec interface to a SCSI bus.
