Hi Evan, I used the Tense Legacy tape backup package (150 meg wangtek system)
without problems under ESIX. It is capable of reading 60/120/150 meg tapes. If
you really want high density why not look at SCSI 8mm. Thats the way nebulus is
going. I would recomend, if you have the available IRQ,DMA and slot to go to
the Wangtek (TENSE) solution. It's proven technology and reasonably priced!
