Yes, I've used Tandberg NS 20 PRO for some months; so far I am very
contented with it - it has done a good job; my SCSI controller is
a Dawicontrol 2975 U; under redhat 5.2 / 6.0, both kernel 2.2.9
I get access to the controller by sym53c8xx - this one is a more
recent driver; under previous kernels I used successfully ncr53c8xx.
additionally the kernel has to contain (general) SCSI support and
support for a SCSI tape drive, that is the st.o module.
Bye, Juergen.
