If so, how are they working out? Whether or not it was my fault, I left a AU$50 tape in one of these drives for a couple of days, and when I went to do a backup, I was informed by the software (amanda) that the tape was unusable. When I pulled the tape out of the drive and looked at the surface of the tape, it had creases on it from where the tape-head was resting on the tape! -- :{ andyf@speednet.com.au Andy Farkas System Administrator Speed Internet Services http://www.speednet.com.au/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
