I've been meaning to post results of my efforts to find a good backup system
for my XENIX system.  Here's the perfect excuse.

I bought a CMS internal drive from JADE set up for XENIX for $700.00  I mounted
it in an external cabinet (It needs a relatively hefty PS) It installs with no
problem, comes with a tape and will let you do a dump and a tar on the same
tape using nrct0.  (Do make sure you specify the one for XENIX.)


No relationship with either CMS or JADE other than a happy customer
