Hi,
I'm looking for a 250mb - 1gig removable cartridge drive for system backup.

Having just played zip parallel on my slackware 1.2.13 laptop, I'm
convinced removable (&scsi) is the way to go (over scsi tape) but I'd like
bigger, faster disks and more dustproofing (and linux driver support of
course)

Can anyone suggest a drive and driver, or point me in the right direction
please? Is there a removable cartridge FAQ?


Thanks,

Michael


(I loathe those tapes, they're so.. so.. LINEAR!!)
