Last I heard, the drivers were not available for the Mac. It's not a very
popular format for the PC either. I would definitely recommend VXA over
Onstream if you're addressing smaller backup needs (<20GB).

OK, so the tapes are called ADR. I downloaded the whitepapers and will take
a look...
The reason I ask is that I haven't seen them around in any catalogue from
all the large mailorder companies and there have been no disussion (or
little???) regarding this technology on this list... That makes me a little
sceptic, though the price / data seemed really interresting.
The disscussion: Either no-one are using them or there are loads of
OnStream/ADR users on this list and no-one is ever encounter any
problems... ;-)
Back-up is important stuff and if stuffes are cheap a good solution will
turn to a poor in no time... VXA seemed interresting as well.
thanx,
/ jakob
