We're any of the other DEC drives released in a scsi version?
It's in the naming scheme. TK = DEC interface, TF = DSSI, TZ = SCSI,
TU = massbus, TA = SDI, etc. I've personally never seen a TZ85/86/87,
but if they exist, and conform to the naming scheme, they're SCSI.
Some of the later TZ8x drives can be found banded as other brands under a DLT model rather
than a DEC model number. For example, I have a Compaq DLT4000 20/40 GB drive that's
exactly the same hardware as a TZ88 but the badge on the front is different. It works
just fine with OpenVMS :) Alas the 88 is too late to read TK50 cartridges... I think.
