- I'm looking at buying a 4mm DAT drive for my Sun 4. After looking at
- st(4), it looks like sun only has support for the 8mm type. Has anyone
- got a 4mm DAT drive working without buying some commercial product? Do
- I need a special driver to use it?
-
- Are there any 4mm DAT drives that are 5 1/4" (or smaller) Half Height drives?
-
- Does anyone have any experiences with the new 1GB QIC drive (QIC-121?).
- The add I saw from Everex says it does a maximum of 34MB/minute. Is the
- controller side compatible with the standard QIC-150 driver? (i.e. just
- change the densities with dump and away it goes?)
-
- I seem to remember discussions about 4mm DATs before, but I wasn't thinking
- about buying one back then. Maybe I should archive these groups...
-
- Thanks,
