Coincidentally, I was just looking at backups from my BBS from the same era.

I wish I had a way to retrieve the data, assuming it's even still good.

I remember using a parallel port driven magnetic tape drive to record them. Probably a device that tar(1) was originally designed for :)

What medium did you use?
