Does anyone have any experience with the 150 Mb (DC600) tape backup
systems for the Mac?  I have two Macs with approximately 300 Mb of
disk that require backups.  Currently I'm using my 40 Mb removable
to do backups, but the cost of cartridges is a bit high (compared to
tape).  Any recommendations for a particular manufacturer?  Backup
software that will recognize/use the tape drive as a valid device?
Horror stories?  I've seen ads for Teac drives and drives made by
Mirror Technologies.  The price of the Mirror tape drive is around
$700.  Please e-mail me your responses and I will summarize to the
net if there is enough interest.  Thanks!
