Questions about tape bacups: 1) Is there a good magazine article describing tape backups i.e. what software to buy, what hardware is compatible with my pc, the benefits of internal vs external? 2) I was looking into getting an internal tape drive, around 250MB. Have seen some ads. Do I need to buy separate software and controller cards for them or is the industry norm to sell the complete package? e.g. colorado memory systems internal 250 mb drive, conner, etc. 3) I already have a few of the normal (big) data cartridges. Is it better for me to go to the mini-cartridge format? Thanks a lot. Paul Gupta 510-528-0618 milli@leland.stanford.edu
