I have also used the Colorado Tape Backup (Jumbo) system.  The 
backup times I got were as high as 2.1meg/min when I did 30meg and
about and as low as 1meg/min with about 2meg.  Other than the long
format time(38min) and a little noise on boot up it is a great 
unit for a stand alone. (all on DOS 3.3 systems) 

But on a Novell network betware.  A client reported to us that 
when he backed up with one other user on, besides the user doing 
the backup that is, several hundred files weren't backed up.  
With just the backup user logged in it works great he said.  We 
haven't had a chance to contact the company, so the user may have 
goofed up in the installation(or something else).
