Farallon PN996-TX 10/100 PCI Ethernet card

2000-04-10 Thread Ted Baker

 Anyone have any opinions on the Farallon PN996-TX 10/100 PCI Ethernet card?

I installed 9 of these ~6 months ago in beige G3's (8 desktop  1 tower)
along with a CentreCom 10/100 switch  have been very happy with them.
I've used Farallon network stuff for many years  found all of it to be top
grade.

Regards, Ted

Re: AIT drives

2000-03-09 Thread Ted Baker

Does anyone have any experience with the LaCie AIT 35 GB/70 GB drives?

I've been using an APS 35/70 AIT drive for ~5 months now on a biege desktop
266MHz G3 running MacOS 9  Retrospect 4.1 (now 4.2) to do nightly backups
on 24 disks on 12 Macs  2 PC's with zero problems from the tape drive.  At
~$2K for the drive plus something like $300 for an Adaptec 2940UW ultra
wide SCSI card it was financially much more attractive than ~$4K for a
35/70 DLT drive.  I had a LaCie 15/30 DLT drive for ~2 years before that 
was very happy with it but the $$$ difference was too much to pass up when
our data storage outgrew the DLT.  Based on my experience to date, I would
certainly recommend this AIT drive  SCSI card.
