Tape drives (which one to look for?)

Hi everybody,

For those of you who've read my notes on the MIPS RISComputers I'm trying to
get going, I ask this because I may want to replace the QIC-120 drive that's
missing from one of them with a different model.

I'd like some opinions on tape drives. The drive would need to plug into a
SCSI interface, and I'd like it to fit in a 5.25" half-height bay. That's
pretty much all I'd require from it. It would be nice if the drive held at
least as much as a QIC-120 (about 120MB, it so happens ;), and was
inexpensive and easy to get used.

Any suggestions? What's the going price on DDS-1 these days?

Regards,

Chris
