I think it's an Ultra, there are only two connectors on it (plus one to
connect to the SCSI card). Actually it's configured as this :
SCSI CARD ====== TAPE DRIVE ====== TERMINATOR

Just to be sure that everything is compatible (as I'm not a SCSI
expert), the tape drive has the following interface : 
- Embedded SCSI interface (Ultra160LVD, Single-ended or Low Voltage
differential)

but the SCSI cards I tested are not U160, the last one was one from
QLogic :
- QLA1020/104x Fast-Wide-SCSI "Fast!SCSI IQ" Host Adapter'

and at boot it's detected as :

sa0 at isp0 bus 0 target 5 lun 0
sa0: <SONY SDX-700C 0103> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device 
sa0: 40.000MB/s transfers (20.000MHz, offset 8, 16bit)

I hope everything is compatible (U160 vs SCSI 2 ?)

Thanks for your help,
Julien
