Sequent is now offering an 8mm solution for the Symmetry.  From what I've
heard it does not use the SCSI bus on the SCED board but instead uses a
controller on the Multibus.

Does anyone have experience with it?  Are they using a Pertec to SCSI
board?  If so can it share the same Multibus controller as a 1/2 inch
tape?  Any information is appreciated.
