Here are two questions about tape backup on the MacII:

1) Does Apple use an industry standard cartridge tape format on
the Apple tape backup unit?  In particular can I read
the tapes on a Sun, which uses QIC12 and QIC24.

2) We have an Exabtye 8mm SCSI tape drive that we use on
Suns. Does anyone know where we can can get a cable and
driver so that we can also use it on a MacII.
