little off-topic but I'm looking into replacing our old DDS4 tape drive which is now too small. Our choice now looks like LTO, AIT or DLT as our total backup size is now 80Gb. Has anyone got any good/bad experiences with any of these technologies? I'm assuming that all will be recognised by SuSE on our ervier which has both SATA and SCSI. What's the cheapest to buy and run?
We have three LTO drives, and one DLT drive. openSUSE works fine with them all. LTO seems somewhat more reliable than DLT (we've had to swap the DLT drives a couple times over the years), but that is ancedotal. I think price ways they ate all about the same. -- -- Adam Tauno Williams Network & Systems Administrator Consultant - http://www.whitemiceconsulting.com Developer - http://www.opengroupware.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
