Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a 4.5-RELEASE system and have just taken possession of an AHA-2940 ultra scsi card: I think it's time I took a serious look at backing stuff up. Someone gave me a tape drive that turned out to be an floppy tape unit, unsupported under FreeBSD. So I'm looking to do it right this time. Any either recommended units or brands and formats? I don't have but a few Gb of stuff to back up, 10 at the outside for now. The most any machine will take up is 2-3 Gb. Boxes I'd like to have backed up range from Mac OS 9/X to FreeBSD and NetBSD. -- Paul Beard 8040 27th Ave NE Seattle WA 98115 206 529 8400 Every creature has within him the wild, uncontrollable urge to punt.
