So far I haven't had a single problem (under FreeBSD 2.0R, DOS/Win, and OS/2). I'd recommend it. I would stay away from the Colorado Memory Systems products, though - they seem to be really cheap and break easily (at least the few we've had). MEI Micro sells the Iomega Tape 250 (without the Iomega logo) for something like $130-$140, so it's a pretty good deal. John Lajoie
