Looking for Tape Drive info.

I'm using an Everex 60 MB (actually, almost 64 MB) tape drive with the
"long board" on Xenix 2.3 (beta).  This is the first version where the
tape drive works exactly as it should, including recovery from write
errors, without dropping the 386 clock rate to 8 mHz.

There is a newer half length Everex tape interace board, but nobody I
know has been able to get it to work.

The 2.3 tape driver also has code to support 120/150 MB tape drives.
