I purchased a 1.7GB Quantum Fireball some time ago (about 3 months); my
father has also purchased a 2.5GB Quantum Bigfoot (both in the same system -
the Fireball is for Linux, the Bigfoot holds DOS.) Currently, backups
consist of a Travan QIC drive, holding 800MB compressed - hardly the
most satisfactory of solutions :)

I'm seriously thinking of getting a DAT drive once I get a couple more
paychecks, as I am well aware that they have a good capacity, and the
media is dirt cheap compared with the QICs. Unfortunately, I have
absolutely no idea as to which one would be a good buy. Suggestions?

Oh, yes - at the moment, I have no SCSI adaptor, so I'd probably need
to get one of _those_ as well. Any ones to avoid/most recommended/etc?
(Bear in mind that my system is not PCI - ISA cards and VESA local bus
cards are OK.)

necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going
to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead.  -- RFC1925.
