I'm looking for an effective mass storage device to back up my 70MB
winchester. Since my system is a DEC Rainbow, which is compatible with
almost nothing, I can't use most of the popular IBM PC oriented options.
About the only standard part of my system is the disk controller, which
can run two ST412/ST506 compatible drives. Since I'm only using one
drive, the ideal solution would be a tape cartridge drive that looks
like an ST412/ST506 disk drive. A disk cartridge drive would be OK too,
except that the ones I've seen only hold 5MB, and the cartridges cost
$100 apiece -- which means $1400 in media for just one full backup.
Any ideas?
