Lines: 21 Message-ID: <4naigq$dg9@dracula.hybrid.com> Reply-To: keng@hybrid.com NNTP-Posting-Host: silva.hybrid.com X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.0.82 Now that I upgraded my motherboard to Intel Zappa P-90, my litlle Archive 250 floppy tape no longer works. Unfortunately, I have a bunch of DC-2120 (QIC-80) tapes I would like to be able to use with whatever new tape drive I get. Is there a drive out there that works under FreeBSD and Windows95, that can still read/write these tapes? What about the so-called "Travan" drives -- do they work under FreeBSD? They seem to have fairly high capacity, but do they work under FreeBSD, and can they use DC-2120 tapes? Thanks in advance. -Ken --- Ken Gaugler Hybrid Networks, Inc. Cupertino, Calif.
