I'm using version 3.2. I have ran across the following drives and I would like to find out if anyone has or is currently using them successfully: 1. Onstream 30 gig Parallel Port device (also available in IDE, and SCSI) Non-traditional tape drive, files can be executed from the device could possibly only be used with windows software, but I'm not sure. 2. Sony SuperStation 6.6/10 gig Parallel port (also available in IDE) As far as I can tell this is a normal tape drive 3. There are also Colorado tape drives available in my town, but I was told they are not supported. If anyone could suggest what types of drives are supported, or have a reference to how to setup and run these devices, I would greatly appreciate it... Thanks guys...
