- I like but can't afford (as yet) the new bernoulli drive. It is an internal
- and it is SCSI. I believe there will be a tsr. The good view point is that
- for a backup you can use a compress mode and backup up to 180 meg I believe.
- When it is'nt backing up, unplug the cart plugin another and you have a spare
- 90 meg 19ms harddrive. There can be a real advantage to such an expensive
- removeable harddrive (cartridge). The worst drawback I know of is the $90.00
- apiece carts. Hey, it comes with one.
