Hallo Everybody,

I got a tapedrive, full sixty megabytes... It's a Tandberg TDC 3650, and
it has a 50pin-connector at the rear, it has three jumpers labeled
ID 1, 2 & 3, it has a Jumper called parity ... After connecting it to
my good old faithfull Adaptec 1542 (it's working fine, with disks and
CDroms), I got a message ... NO CONTROLLER FOUND! The Adaptek did not
even recognized itself any more. 

So, my question: Is the wonderful piece of ancient Hardware SCSI, 
   or TANDBERG-Interface, or what is it? 

It came along with a most helpfully labeled interfacecard: AXEL IRIS
that's it. An enormous amount of jumpers ( approx. 20). 

Does anybody know about these drives?

Ciao 

Thomas (tom@dbstw.escape.de)
