I am currently testing a Megatape Tape Drive tha's supposed to allow you to save up to 2GB. The tape I am testing comes from a company called Interscience which gets these tapes from Megatape Corp. My main concern is SUPPORT. I have heard that Sequent is (or has already been ) testing ythis tape and has approved it for shipment. I have asked my sales rep. about it and am waiting for more info. Since I was told that some customer had already received these tapes and were using them for about a month, I would like to know of your experience with such tape drive: How reliable is it? How fast is it? Any problems when using any of the backup utilities? (I was told that a special version of dump called hdump comes with the drive). Thanks in advance for the info Robert Young uunet!peregrine!robert (714)727-3341, Ext 167
