[comp.sys.novell] Tape backup systems

jfb@naucse.cse.nau.edu (Jamie Bradford) (03/30/91)

I would like to get from the informed readers of this group recommendations
for tape backup systems.  I'm running NetWare v3.10 with an Imprimis 600MB
hard drive.  I woud like a system that can backup the entire drive on a 
single tape and that can run unattended.  Any help would be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks.

I just purchased a Maynard 1300 DAT drive.  It is a big improvement over
my old 60MB QIC system.  As I understand it, any drive that will
support the maynard Maynstream tape backup software will do unattended
backups and remote backups.  The neat thing about the DAT is that the tape
is this big:
------------------------
|                      |
|                      |   and holds 1.3 gigabytes.  They cost about
|                      |   $10 apiece.
|                      |
|                      |
|                      |
