This IBM 66X4109 B22 Tape Unit Drive is being sold AS-IS for parts or repair. Due to its age and legacy status, we are not able to guarantee functionality, and it has not been tested at our facility. The unit came from a local organization where it had previously been in service. The chassis houses multiple IBM board modules (QS90, 6310, 6130, 6031, 6020, 6021, 6003, and others) — all visible and present as shown in the photos. Externally, the top of the chassis shows significant dust accumulation and general surface grime consistent with years of storage. The front panel controls (Emergency, Thermal, Power/Ready switches) are intact and present. The unit is large and heavy (approximately 125 lbs), so please plan accordingly for shipping or local pickup. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
