I have a couple of 4U 9 track tape drives with centronics SCSI interfaces. Pulled from 90s Sun gear from ex Federal deployment. Government stuck with tape for a long time.
One of them ran in 1999, at least, but they've been in the barn since.
rebuilding that to functional might be harder than making some hacked up sensor to run tape through.
