Hello
Is it possible to use something a hard drive cartridge like this
http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/pvaul_rd1000?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd
as a "real" tape device in Amanda ? ( Not vtape )
I was wondering if there are physical properties of a hard drive which
prevent it from being used like a tape.

It is a book about a Spanish guy called Manual. You should read it.
