I'm wondering how easy (& cheap!) it would be to add a tape streamer to this set-up. I see from a recent BYTE that adaptec make a SCSI->Tape drive converter. Also, I think several people make SCSI tape streamers. Now, how easy would it be for me to add a streamer? - Would the C-Ltd s/w work with a streamer, or would I need something else??? - Has anyone done something like this ??? - what is best (i.e. cheapest!), A SCSI tape streamer, or native i/f with adaptec ??? #:wq (damn!!) -- Paul Ockenden Philips Radiotheapy Systems, Crawley, UK +44 293 28787 x 4349 UUCP - uunet!mcvax!ukc!prlhp1!ockenden JANET - ockenden%prlhp1@uk.ac.Ukc Opions (where expressed), are those of Paul Ockenden the individual, NOT Paul Ockenden the Philips Employee !!
