2440.1TZ877 with TA867?CSC32::KINGSat Feb 15 1997 02:038
    
    This seemed like the best place for my question. Here at the
    CSC, Colorado, we got 2 new TZ877 tape loaders (p/n TH4EA-BP).
    The adapters with these are TA867s however (p/n 70-28868-01).
    Will these work together, or do we need a TA877 to use these 
    as TZ87 devices?

	The TZ877 is already a TZ87 with a 7 slot loader.  The TA867
	is a TZ867 (TZ86 with 7 slot loader) with a TA/TZ converter.
	I don't think the converter was ever sold with anything but
	the TZ857 and TZ867.

	I'm guessing that you have TZ877s that you want to connect to
	the K.sti or K.si of an HSC or a KDM70.  Find a SCSI adapter
	instead.
