IBM3590/ Fujitsu 3490E Emulator (IBM 3590 Emulator / Fujitsu 3490E Emulation)

Description
The 3490E series 36-track M2483N/ND and M2485N/ND/N1/ND1 tape drives were used in many applications. These drives are no longer manufactured and tape repair houses are finding increasingly difficult to get spare parts. Some applications are written to only operate with this drive, which yields a problem when the drive fails and cannot be repaired.

The IBM3590/ Fujitsu 3490E Tape Emulator is a small stand alone flash disk product that emulates a Fujitsu 3490E that will plug & play with these applications.
