I have an HP SureStore DAT24 and unfortunately at this time the driver is
broken. The backups are slow (the tape keeps resetting) and if you try to
back up more than a tape can hold instead of asking for another tape it
simply halts with an error message. This problem is being worked on but it
is not yet resolved.

    Hi,     Thanks for reading this email.     I would like to get some
advices from you regarding tape drive. For your information, I am a new
FreeBSD user. I plan to get a unit of tape drive that can support FreeBSD. I
would like to know whether "HP SureStore DAT24" can be supporteb by FreeBSD.
