I have a C Ltd hard disk and SCSI controller, and I've gotten very
frustrated backing it up to floppies.  CLtd [(316) 267-3807] is
selling a 60 Meg tape backup unit that uses a Teac tape mechanism,
and one price I was quoted was $1,150 !!
A company called First Class Peripherals [(800) 982-3232] also sells
a tape unit which looks like it uses the Teac mechanism ("The Sider T6",
60 Meg, SCSI) for $800 but they don't support the Amiga.

Teac does sell a 60 Meg tape unit with SCSI interface, but only to
distributors and OEMs.

However, the CLtd-Teac driver software is up on their bulletin board
(316) 267-1222, free for the asking!

Does this give anyone else some ideas?
