[geeks] Sun Ultra2 and DLT tape drives

Anyone here ever run a DLT drive on a Sun Ultra2?

I've not had a lot of luck with DVD backup, and DLT tape drives aren't
too expensive now on eBay, so I am at least thinking about getting one.
Still have some DVD experiments to try first, but it isn't looking
good.

If I get a DLT drive right now, the most likely host for it would be a
Sun Ultra 2/300 dual CPU system.  I never ran fast tape drives on any of
the Ultras so I don't know how well they run.
