I have a SCSI QIC-36 cartridge tape drive for backing up Unix workstations.
(Uses DC600 tapes, an Emulex MT02 controller and a Wangtek drive). While
it only gets 60 megs on a tape, it works!
I would like to use the same drive, unmodified, to back up a Mac. I've
tried using the drive with Fastback II; the program doesn't know the drive
is there (though SCSI Tools knows SOMETHING is out there). The hardware
works, termination is not an issue, etc. Parity may be an issue...
What is needed to configure the drive? Do I need driver code of some sort
in the System Folder? Does the drive itself need special software? Are
there programs more versatile than Fastback?
If you have a working SCSI tape drive, could you describe how you installed it?
