Date: 2 Mar 2000 01:57:33 +0100 Message-ID: <89ke9t$2beo$1@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de> To: freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org Sender: owner-freebsd-scsi@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Anybody out there who successfully uses an OnStream ADR50 off a FreeBSD box? This is not one of the old line of drives (now called "Echo") that require a special driver. According to the OnStream representative I talked to at CeBIT, the ADRxx series implements the usual SCSI tape command set and should work with any platform that supports SCSI tapes, e.g. they claim it's handled by the normal Linux SCSI driver. PS: Any opinions on OnStream (ADR) vs Ecrix (VXA), which seem to be similarly priced for both drives and media? -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
