- Subject: Tape Drives -- What Kind, How Big?
- Lines: 9
-
- 1. We are considering buying bigger server with tape drive included. I have
- read on this list some negative comments about sytos, and one or two about
- Maynard software. Could anyone cheerfully recommend a brand and model?
- 2. We would probably buy a 500Mb hard drive in server. What size tape drive
- should I buy? Is it better to buy a tape drive that would backup the entire
- server, or to buy a smaller size? I want the backup to be done automatically,
- and don't understand how you could buy a smaller size without being there to
- feed in the next tape.
- Thanks for the help so many of you have given.
