Hello,
I am seeking information on available tape backup drives for a Tandy 4000
('386 machine) running SCO Xenix 2.2.2 (386 version). I am curious as to
what the difference is between a "cassette" and a "cartidge" unit. Which
is better, and can the cassette unit work on Xenix.
Also, which of the available ones on the market would you netlanders
recommend as the best and reasonably priced unit. I can use either a
40 or 60 meg unit for my setup.
I have heard conflicting arguments from those around me regarding the
cassette vs. cartridge units. The cartridge units are more expensive,
thus my concern about whether a cassette unit will do the job. Any help
anyone can provide would be most appreciated.
Please email responses as my system will be down from news for a week or so
while we make our transition from our old system to the '386.
Thank you.
Mark.
