we have a Mountain Computer Inc. "FileSafe 2100-D" 2048 Mb 8mm DAT drive, as distributed by DEC. it is daisy-chained off of a Decstation 3100 as a SCSI device. the problem is that it goes off line at the drop of a hat, and requires a power cycle in order to recover. has anyone had enough experience with this make/model to tell me whether this is "normal"? any workarounds? please e-mail. thanks in advance -- Michael H.
