Hi all,

I want to do backup for my home use PC with a borrowed
tape drive from work. The tape drive is for my Sun 4,
and it has Sun logo on it, its model is Sun 411. The
pc has Adaptec 1542C card. I have put DOS, Windows 3.1,
and NetBSD on this PC and plan to have OS2/2.1 . The
question is does this tape drive work with my PC and if
it does what kind of driver do I need and where can I
get it. Any info on this is well appreciated.

Peace,
kb
