I have been so happy with not only the drive itself but the company, tech support etc.. That I became a reseller for VXA Drives. I use two drives myself to back up Graphic files over the network for 30 workstations. Mostly Mac but some PC's win95/98. I get about 38 gig on a tape which isn't too bad since graphics files are not really compressible. I get about 180 megs/minute transfer rate and have done several restores. I replaced a Sony DDS-3 because I was tired of having to use 2-3 tapes for a nightly backup. This has made it much easier for me. like I said I was so happy with the drive I now sell them.
