And there is a 3490 in the lab that used to be attached to an iSeries
model 320, then all the way up to the Power 5, 520 before Larry and I
took that and several other older parts of the customers hands.

Saved 'em a bunch of money vs. having to get them recycled.

Jim is correct. In fact the 3590 that I have in the FrankenLab was
purchased to attach to a model 640. Remember that 3590s am OLD!

Sure, there were interface cards you could use. I had many clients with
3590 family tapes.

this unit has a 3590 tape drive. I am not comfortable with that

answer. Is

it possible to have a 3590 attached to that system?
