Today, I called them again. They have a new version of the driver, the install
program and the handbook. It supports DirectSCSI, now. Almost everything I
didn't like in their previous release has been improved. Is seems I can
recommend it now. I hope my update arrives this week.
Well, they don't use RDB. They say, if RDBs are on the drive their driver
would not destroy them. RDBs aren't used because they need to store additional
information and secondly: no RDBs ==> no RDB-viruses!
