Hello, netters, Recently I bought an ArchiveXL internal tape backup. I works with a DC2120 tape with up to 120 Mb storage. For a two 2-floppy system (as my Gateway 2000 is) it requires a small 8-bit board.) Here is my question: to format a tape to 80 Mb it takes more than 3 hours!!! It winds back and forth during this time. Should this be taking really this long? Peter Revesz Cornell MS&E revesz@crnlmsc3
