There are other sources.
1. Berkely Micro Systems sells CT backup and software.
2. My own BACKUP program works well for me on the Adaptec 3530 SCSI controller.
3. Theres another fellow posting recently on his own driver.

So go ahead, put a system together.  The mechanics of driving a CT is not
all that difficult.  And there is software.
