We are looking for a tapeback with at least a 20gigabyte uncompressed capacity. The models I we have reviewed such as the HP 48gig use a multiloader 5-tape system that requires specific drivers in order to treat the 5-tapes as ONE unit. In other words they come with a 5 tape autoloader but in order to treat the 5 tapes as ONE you have to install a driver which HP does not provide for bsdi...........if anyone can recommend another tape backup alternative that will not bankrupt the avergage person we would appreciate it...... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Rick---* http://www.monmouth.com | Serving the Central Monmouth Internet Engineer | New Jersey Area Operations and Technical Support | Phone: 908-224-8624 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
