Hello everyone,
Has anyone tried this new 8GB HP Colorado tape backup drive?
I am wondering how it performs with FreeBSD.
I see it listed at $389 or $399(with tape) in Computer Currents.
I found the following on the web:

2.1GB native (4.2GB compressed) with QIC-3095 Wide minicartridge
Interface:
SCSI-2
Compatibility:
Read/write -- QIC-3095 Travan & QIC-3095 Wide Read only
(available as a future storage option) -- QIC-3020 (Jumbo 1400),
QIC-3010 (Jumbo and Trakker 700), QIC-80 TR-1 and QIC-80 Wide
(HP Colorado T1000/T1000e) and QIC-80 (Jumbo/Trakker 350/250)
