Subject:   IDE or SCSI tape backup?

Hi:

I have version 1.1.5.1 running on a Gateway 2000 P5/60, and need to set up a
tape backup.  I have never done this before, and have one main question (so
far :)

1)  What are the pros/cons of IDE vs. SCSI?  Can I use IDE?  The SCSI tape
backups all seem to be +/- $800.  Can I get a cheaper alternative by doing IDE?

2) What are the issues about using SCSI/IDE, in relation to other
peripherals?  I have an IDE hard drive, for example...

Thanks!!

Bill
