It's ONLY -1 or -2 as that's all Apple offered. >> IIRC DDS-1 is 1.3 Gb and DDS2 is 2 or 4 Gb. >> 2 GB for a DDS-1 and 4 GB for a DDS-2, assuming 90 meter and 120 meter tapes, respectively. (A 60 meter tape was also supported by the DDS-1 drive). The DDS-2 drive could accept DDS-1 tapes, so there was upward compatibility in the -1 to -2 direction. The DDS-2 drive had hardware compression, the DDS-1 didn't. >> SCSI Probe can tell you what model of drive it is (probably HP) and a google search can find the details. >> They're both made by HP. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
