I've just started using SDLT, and it's the best thing since sliced bread -
fast - very fast, high capacity (110G native). Very nice.

|Subject: Tape technology
|
|
|Hi all,
|
|Perhaps this is not quite the place for this question, but I
|hope it won't
|offend anyone ;)
|
|I will be looking to get a new tape drive, but am not very
|familiar with the
|current technology. I have heard of DDS, DAT and have used
|Travan. As far as
|I'm concerned, the Travan is out of the question, 'cause the
|tapes are so
|expensive (and apparently they are now obsolete?).
|
|So; what are the opinions of this list? (<BEGIN FLAME>...?)
|
|..Brian
