Re: 8mm for a 170

You will need 2729 tape IOPcard, 2809 Multifunction IOP card (prerequisite
for 2729) and appropriate cable.
Ordering cable can be a problem, because 7208-002 is no longer marketed, so
there is no official cable to attach it to 2729 card.
Maybe some other cable will work...

Best regards

For those less hardware challenged than I...What do I need on a 170 to
attach an 8mm tape drive (7208-002).
