I've been told that Quarterback (the Hard Drive Backup Util.) is incompatable with Supra Drives. Can someone confirm or deny this? I've heard several very good reports about Quarterback, and only a few poor reviews (which is more than I can say for most backup Utils.). So please enlighten me on what the problem is here.

Anyway, it's fixed now, I use both of these products with very good results.

Can someone confirm or deny this? I'm probably the one that told you, but It didn't work for me, and then I noticed a note in "bug bytes" in AC that it was a known problem.

I've used Quarterback exclusively with my Supra drives for quite a
while now. I have had no problems since Supra fixed a small software bug in
version 5.2. (They have since then gone through 5.3, Release II 1.03, 1.05,
1.07, 1.09, 1.09c, 1.09e and 1.09f... Always getting improved!)

I have used quarterback with my supra on my old 1000 with ZERO problems. Be SURE you have the current version of the supra software however since old versions had problems. Great program in my opinion. -- Jim Sanchez {sun,hplabs}!sytek!syteke!jim OR Hughes LAN Systems, Brussels uunet!prlb2!sunbim!syteke!jim
