We are looking for some form of removable cartridge read/write storage
media that will hold at least 10Meg, preferably more. The drive should
fit inside the computer's cabinet. The drive should have both Unix and
MS-DOS drivers available for it. The DOS drivers must be available now
but the unix drivers are not required now. They might be required some
time in the future. If I have to, I'll write them but only if there is
some good thorough documentation available.

If there is no other option, then we will likely use QIC-60 tapes. These
will do the job but with somewhat limited flexiblity.  We do not require
random access but if a random access device was available, then it would
definitely be the first choice.

Any suggestions? Any dogs to avoid?

Thanks
    Larry
