I want to purchase a tape backup for my SCO Xenix/386 2.3.3 system. The DC2000 units are the ones in my price range. I'm considering units from Colorado Memory Systems, Mountain, and Irwin. Does anyone out there have a DC2000 tape drive on a SCO Xenix system. Any info on drivers, hardware, experiences, etc would be appreciated.

Since I already have 2 floppy drives, I needed to buy another board (add $70). The hardware went in without a hitch. Colorado has a xenix/unix driver ($100 extra) which works just fine with tar and backup. A nice feature for me is that I can backup my DOS partition and XENIX partition on the same tape.
