It is now time for me to get a backup device with a good amount of storage (I have an 8 gig drive largest of 3). I have never used/owned a tape drive, so does anybody have any suggestions ? I am also a student so I dont have a ton of money to spend on it, but have some. Also when I see tape sizes I see things like 4G compresses 2G native, which size should I look at ? Is the compression done by the hardware or by the win32 drivers supplied ? SO would FBSD suport the compressions rates ? thanks jay To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
