We are running Microsoft XENIX System V on an IBM AT and are looking for a
tape backup system that we can supply with the software system that we
are developing.  We'll require no user intervention or initialization
(e.g. it will be run from cron so the tape capacity must be at least as
large as the drive (30-40mb)); an internal unit that sits in the place of
the second diskette drive is preferable.

We are investigating the 145 AT tape drive from Irwin Magnetics, but we are
told that no driver for XENIX is available from Irwin at this time.  If you
are using an Irwin system with your own or purchased driver, or if you are
using another tape cartidge backup system, I would appreciate any information
that you have.

Thanks in advance,

Dave Schmidt
