SCSI controller to replace XY472?

[Ken Mandelberg]

Is there any way to convert Sun's pre-scsi 1/2" tape drive to scsi?  I'm
talking about the 1600/6250 bpi Fujitsu M2444. The drive has a Pertec
interface that mated with the Sun supplied XY472.

I'm wondering if there is a way to replace the Pertec interface controller
in the drive with a SCSI controller, or maybe there is a SCSI<>Pertec
converter.
