For the HyperCP experiment at Fermilab, we have assembled a data
acquisition system that records on up to 45 Exabyte 8505 tape drives in
parallel at up to 17\,MB/s. During the beam spill, data are acquired from
the front-end digitization systems at $\approx60$\,MB/s via five parallel
data paths.  The front-end systems achieve typical readout deadtime of
$\approx 1\,\mu$s per event, allowing operation at 75-kHz trigger rate
with $_\sim$\llap{$^<$}30\% deadtime. Event building and tapewriting are
handled by 15 Motorola MVME167 processors in 5 VME crates.
