Andrew, I have used some of the new HP Travan drives with that particular SCSI adapter. They are slower than DAT drives, but are siginificantly cheaper. Because it's Travan technology, it doesn't support some functions such as eject (you must physically remove the tape). The one that I used had a 4GB native capacity.
