Has anyone have a device driver for ...
- SyQuest 45-MB removables?
- a 150-MB SCSI streamer tape? (This one understands standard SCSI tape-type
  calls. Shouldn't be too hard to write one myself, but if somebody else
  already did it, I can do some more important work instead...)

- Did anyone modify the driver for the Apple tape to do its own blocking?
  Hell, since this is a direct-access "tape", I always wanted to use it like 
  just another (albeit _very_slow_) hard disk. ;-) )

Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance, and all that.
Oh yes, and happy new year of course. (I hope for that one, too -- I've got a
severe case of the flu right now, which is another reason why I can't just sit
down and write those drivers myself. :-( )
