Message-ID: <1441@mcrware.UUCP> Date: 3 Jan 90 22:08:51 GMT Organization: Microware Systems Corp., Des Moines, Ia. Lines: 18 When I got my Mac Plus a while back it came with a tape backup utillity (I forget the exact name and my machine's at home). Anyway, I figured that it must work with a drive over the SCSI bus. I was wondering if anyone knows what kind of drive this standard software expects and what of setup is nec- essary as far as parity and controller ID on the SCSI bus. We have a few SCSI tape drives around here and I would like to use one of them to backup my machine instead of having to use floppies. Please e-mail or post info as appropriate. Thanks for any help. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Lyons - ...!sun!mcrware!davely | On Second though let's not go to My employer laughs at my opinions. | Camelot...
