I would recomend going with the high quality tape (costs about $10 a tape). We have been using an 8mm tape drive on a different vendors computer for over a year now and are extremely pleased with it. We can backup 2 gigs on one tape and don't have to have an operator changing tapes constantly. Ted Nieland TNIELAND@AAMRL.AF.MIL
