I am very happy with my rebuilt Exabyte 8200.  Not the latest,
spiffiest, or quickest but 2.3Gb and SCSI for only ~$300 from CDS @
805-499-6355.  I have had very good luck with Exabytes over the years
and the tapes are cheap and seem to last a while (I recently recovered
some data from a tape that had been sitting in a box for six years
with no data loss).

I have put several HP-35480 DATs in client machines with excellent
results, these are about $650 new in box.  I like this drive a lot but
it is a little pricy for some uses.
