The version I have is not SCSI.

The part number looks up in the manual  as 90ips, Ferrite head and D/CAS
as the interface.

I've never had any Mac hardware before the Macbook, or VME.

I used to have a SCSI interface version of that drive type, I made backups of 
my Mac Plus (I think it was) hard drive.  Since I don't have it currently, I 
believe I gave it to a friend along with the rest of my Mac Plus peripherals.  
I don't recall the capacity of my specific drive, but it used a "data 
cassette", which had a notch in the tape case to prevent use of regular 
cassette tapes.

Group,

I have one of these TEAC Phillips tape drives.  I have a manual:

Is tape (media) available for it?

What was it typically used in?

How much storage was it?

I was digging for some paerts and found it in my collection.  I know of
no system
I have that used it but someone must have done a "Here, maybe you can
use it!".
