[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Q. about tape backup systems

nomad@orstcs.cs.ORST.EDU (07/09/87)

      I would like to thank all the people who responded (mail or posted)
to my question about backup utilities for my new 60mb of hard disk space.

	I would also like to find out if anyone has anything to relate about
tape backup systems. I figure that as long as I spent all this money on
hard disks I should at least look into tape.   I would like something
that is fast (obviously) and easy to use to retrieve single files or
entire disks. (I understand that the early tape stuff was generally good
at one or the other - file or disk - but not both...)  I would also
like something that can read TAR or TCIO/CPIO tapes that I write here
on HP9000s running HP-UX. Anyone heard of such a beast?

    ADVthanksANCE
