Tape drive

[Mark Dornfeld]

I have a couple Archive 60Mb drives running and have had few
problems, but we do not back up daily.  Our drivers are from
Consensys and allow allocation of really large buffers.  On
one 386 I use 4000 blocks of memory to buffer the process.
This speeds things up incredibly.

I saw a tape drive from Tandberg Siemans at Consensys booth at
Uniforum.  Both Consensys and Jasmine (with peripherals for
the Mac II under UNIX) like the T-S drive (125 Mb).
