Believe it or not, the earliest days of Kibology were
archived on a 9-track tape (on an IBM 3090.)  I think the tape is
somewhere under Troy NY gathering mold, unless they've erased it to make
room for a backup of *COINFLIP.

Well, the development terminology was "muffer", methinks.
Contraction of "memory buffer".  Too goofy to ever see the light

Unless, of course, you were looking for "Block Transfer Scheme".

  Along the vein of 9 tracks, my school sells used equpiment that nobody wants  
anymore really cheap - I have been thinking about buying one of their old    
PDP-8's and putting my PC motherboard and stuff in it.  I also wanted to buy  
one of the 9 track drives they have for sale, and also put lots of blinking  
lights on the front of the box (from a card hooked up to the address lines of  
the PC).  
  Anyhow, I have done a bit of research, and pertec controllers for PC's are  
really expensive.  I would want to use a 9 track as cheap backup, because I  
could buy the drive for less than 50 dollars and media for almost free.  Is  
there any way I could do this without spending an arm and a leg?

Someone was killed once when a medical radiology machine delivered a

amount desired for treatment. This is a comp.risks sort of thing,
though.
  What would be a non-risks thing? Someone kicking a machine which

That's curious, I was there from 1969 to 1973, as an undergrad, and that's

I dunno.  I saw a lot of imaginatively munched tapes in 9-track drives.
I used a TA79 a lot -- it was much more reliable than the two TA81s it
superseded put together, but when it decided to fail it would do so properly.
for example, it would fold the tape over on the take-up spool and jam.
The operator would try to rewind the tape, at which point it would spin
the reels in such a way that the tape was pulled in opposite directions,
whipping out of the vacuum columns and finally going taut at about the
stage where both reels had got to full speed.  The tape would of course
snap, leaving the operator to undo the resulting mess, untangle the tape
from the take-up spool and manually re-thread the snapped tape onto the
reel to be rewound.  The drive was very choosey about what it ate in this
fashion, preferring archive tapes and operating system releases over the
common old backup tapes....

Another fun failure mode was to wrap tape several times around an air
bearing in such a way that the roller type bearing was jammed tight and
the tape had to be hacked out with a knife.  It wasn't obvious how this
had occurred.

At a different site I once saw an operator stagger back from a TA78 drive,
totally covered in tape.  I'm not sure quite what happened there....

An IBM 9track drive we had on a System/38 (that I fortunately had nothing
to do with) would actually flip the tape over on its way from one reel
to the other.

The FastRand story I recall is from a site in Germany.  A Fastrand had
been hoisted to a floor several stories up.  The unit was being wheeled
down a corridor when the CE's lost control of it.  The thing went out
the end wall and crashed into (not just onto) the sidewalk.  There were
no reported human injuries.

The drums turned at 330 RPM (or was it 300 RPM).  It took about 1/2
hour to get them up to speed.  Each drum (there were 2 one above the
other) had a 3 phase direct drive motor.

This obviously wasn't related to a Fastrand. The Fastrand contained 2
drums, each about 15" in diameter, about 9 feet long, and rotating at
880 rpm. I've heard plenty of stories about installation, and most of
them had scratches from head crashes on the drum surface (there was a
window where you could watch the positioners move laterally across the
drum. I seem to recall 192 heads and 64 positions, but could be
wrong). In any case, the scratches did not seem to impair the storage
capability. The drums themselves were made of gas piping of some kind
or another, and appeared then to have been chromium plated.

Another creature that used these drives was the Sweeda 80S scanning system
for grocery stores. These creatures had core memory, which was very dependable,
especially after power failures. No rebooting needed - all the information was
still there. As long as you left a certain switch in the 'auto' position,
the system would pick up where it left off. One drawback though - above
about 80 F or so the momory boards would overheat and start flopping about.
	The packs we used held 5 meg each I think. This system was built 
about 1974 or so and replaced in 1989 with a newer Casio PC-baised system.
In comparison, the Casio system sucks. It's fragile, needs lots of care
and hasn't got as much memory. I miss the Sweeda (sniff...)

  How about a PDP-11/70 with TU77 9-track tape, RX02 floppies, and CR11
card reader? Overall, we have 8 9-track drives, 4 TK50's, a TZ30, the 
above-mentioned RX02's and CR11.

  The card reader is an odd story - we had to buy it recently (in geolog-
ical terms 8-). In the mid-80's we got rid of our remaining card equipment.
One faculty member took about 200000 blank cards and 2 keypunch machines.
We though nothing of this until he reappeared about 2 years later with a
150000-card job to run on our (long-departed) IBM 370 (actually, it was a
4300). So, we had to run around and buy a card reader so we could read
this guy's cards, convert them to tape, and run his job. Whimper.

And the PDP-8.  They called it a "TPA"  I saw a picture of it; looked just
like a PDP-8/l.  The article pointed out that it was non-DIN compatible. 
(I think DIN was what they referred to their 360/370 clones.)

No, that's not German, that's an abomination. In German, the months have 
names.

>"seventh" is longer than "July", but many month names are much longer.

So presumably you're going to replace the names of the days of the
week by numbers too.

I only work from 2 to 6, sometimes on a 7, but never on a 1.
