We're looking at purchasing either a 4 or 8mm tape drive to use with the SPARCstation II, and I would like to gather people's opinions of the pros and cons of each. My main concerns are for storage reliability, the ability to dump multiple partitions to one tape, and (of course) cost/capacity. Also, pointers to manufacturers and sellers would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Michael Garvin garvin@ncsu.edu Mars Mission Research Center, NCSU (919) 737-2365 x283
