The questions was more of, what kind of SCSI connector did the drive
have? Was it something that we could just put into the old exabyte
case? Or was it an IBM proprietary connector that would cost us
$100.00 to obtain...
Also, it is unclear if it is the drive or AIX that is limiting the
tape size, and putting the drive onto hodge may not help us in any
way...
I think the best answer is to go buy something that we *know* works,
and won't go away with the RS/6000, and wont (possibly) violate any
service contracts.
