And www.hitechcafe.com has a fabulous Low voltage Differential SCSI drive of
the 9G variety which will mate with the 3944 for a very low price. They also
sell Differential to Ordinary SCSI adapters.
I just ordered a DVD RAM drive from Compgeeks and an Ultra SCSI card of the
Advansys variety elsewhere. I should have a report on using this as a backup
device in 2-3 weeks (takes 6-10 days to get here--one of the down sides of
living 550 miles from where the people stop). I am unsure whether I wil modify
my python script to adapt to DVD RAM from rom-burning or whether I will try to
convince one of the backup programs to use a non-tape device (AGAIN). But
we'll see soon enough.
