Disk & tape drive suggestions for home SLC

I am looking for suggestions on which disk drive & tape drive to buy for
my home SPARCstation SLC.  I want/need anywhere from 300 to 600 mb on a
disk & a tape drive which handles standard (QIC...) format tapes.

Since I can put the disk & tape in their own enclosure, I'm really looking
for pointers to which raw (?) SCSI devices work well w/a SUN.  It would be
especially nice to hear which devices manufacturers use (e.g which drives
SUN, etc. package to sell).  This way, I can go out & buy the drives & put
them w/the power supply I've already got!  Needless to say, I'm not into
being extravagant & would like to save $$ where ever reasonably possible.

Thanks in advance,
