Welcome!
and I'm looking for information about the Zilog System 8000. I know that you owned at least one in the past. I don't know if you still have it, but I hope so :)
We have it, but we haven't done much with it. Perhaps at our next repair event. We have workshops here every few months.
Ok, I'll look forward to that - hoping that it will happen some day ;) Just remember the tapes are quite rare and need be handled with care. Your tape drive has also a capstan which went to goo over the past 30 years, so please do not just put them into the drive without fixing that first. Otherwise the tapes and their contents will be gone forever.... Regards, Oliver
