[bit.listserv.novell] Need tape drive recommendations

NOVELL@UKANVAX.BITNET (PAUL NAZARIO) (02/06/90)

I am looking for information anyone can offer about a good tape system
that can back up a variety of platforms.  The ideal machine would
backup Novell servers (286 & 386, both PC and Mac files), MS-DOS
workstations and Macintosh workstations and probably have a SCSI
interface. If such a beast doesn't exist, what is the best tape system
around?

The following criteria are important:
        Are Macintosh files backed up?
        What type of workstation is required (XT, AT, etc)?
        Can the drive be adapted for use with Netware 386 (by running
                a NLM)
        Is unattended backup possible


If you can include addresses and phone numbers for the company that
would be great.

Finally, if anyone has advice about Tallgrass, Irwin, Maynard,
Mountain, Emerald, and Gigatrend I would like to here from you.


Thanks very much.
