SCSI 1/2" Mag Tape? Also, Sun 386i Expansion Box question

A friend has acquired a Kennedy 9612 1/2" tape drive (aka Pertec 9610)
with a SCSI controller board (Emulex QT13.) This is for a Vaxstation but
he is interested in running it on a Sun he has access to also, on
occasion.

Does anyone run a configuration like this on a Sun SCSI port? What did you
do for a driver?

Another friend (I have ignorant friends :-) has one of those 386i
expansion boxes with a 1/4" cartridge tape in it and asks if it can be
hooked up to, eg, a Sun3/60, preferably leaving it in the original box
(that is, does this just have a standard Sun SCSI port and should just
work with the st driver or is it stranger than that?)

Reply to me (bzs at encore.com) and I'll forward. Thanks, perhaps.
