Question regarding tape drive interface

[Ian King]

OK, this may not be *exactly* the right place to ask this.....

I'm in the process of acquiring a PDP-11/34, on which I intend to run *some* flavor of UNIX.  I also have a Cipher F-880 tape drive, which I would like to interface with the PDP-11.  Reading between the lines of several pages on the Web, it seems it should be possible to do this, but which module is required?  And does that prescribe the version of UNIX I'll be able to run?  Thanks in advance for any experience you can share!
