[cctalk] Re: 5 1/4" and 3.5" disk duplication machines
I definitely do. I rebuilt a Trace ST8000 last year and got it up and running. I also built a 5.25" duplicator with 12 drives a few months back. I'd love to find a commercial 5.25" duplicator.

[cctalk] Re: Overland Data Depot4 application
I have a Qualstar 3412 that I've used with Depot4. I last used this on a 386 running DOS 6.22, a Trantor SCSI card and SCSIWorks! as the ASPI driver.

I'm a bit late to the ballgame, but I use Depot 4 - which is available for download from Curious Marc. https://www.curiousmarc.com/computing/overland-tape-drive On Wed, Sep 27, 2023 at 1:00 PM Anders Nelson via cctalk < cctalk@classiccmp.org> wrote: > Yup, right there in /doc. > -- > Anders Nelson > www.andersknelson.com > > > On Wed, Sep 27, 2023 at 2:58 PM Anders Nelson > wrote: > > > Chuck - is this the one?: > > > > https://github.com/Tubatstuff/Pertec-Interface-Tape-Controller > > > > =] > > -- > > Anders Nelson > > www.andersknelson.com > > > > > > On Tue, Sep 26, 2023 at 11:13 AM Chuck Guzis via cctalk < > > cctalk@classiccmp.org> wrote: > > > >> On 9/26/23 07:11, jim stephens via cctalk wrote: > >> > Overland data Pertec controllers, ISA, AT and PCI interfaces with > >> > utilities for the Pertec interface drives. > >> > >> I also posted plans and software for a Pertec tape controller using an > >> MCU with U SB or serial for comms and control.

[cctalk] Re: Source for NEW (unused) punch tape
I have a few saved searches on eBay. I think these are not a bad price. https://www.ebay.com/itm/392994905002 My GNT4601 punches the guide holes and uses unperforated tape too.
