What company brand is the streaming tape drive in the III?

What company brand is the streaming tape drive in the III?

2010-11-17 by karmagician

Does anyone know what the brand of the streaming tape drive in the series III was?

Is it easy to remove? (before I start to take the thing apart...)

As I mentioned in another message, having problems with it - I found a place that supposedly repairs all kinds of tape drives, but you need to know the brand to get a quote...:

I’m pretty sure it was an Emulex …

Easy to remove if you can use a screw driver, but you do need to remove the complete disk/tape housing.

Bugger, Archive sounds familiar too…. Sorry I worked with far too many tape drives in the CMI/MFX’s
