PC-style tape on 386i?

[Steve Tynor]

Help:

My local sales rep has hinted that there is a PD (or at least inexpensive)
device driver available for IBMPC style cart tapes on the 386i's AT bus.
Can anyone point me toward the code? Are there specific tape drives that
it supports?

I can't afford a Sun shoebox tape drive, but am getting very tired of
feeding floppies to my floppy-hungry Sun... I can probably get a PC tape
drive for $300-400 (vs. $1300+ for a used Sun-compatible...), but what
about a device driver?

Expedience is the best teacher.
