- Does anyone use a Syquest drive on their NeXT? I'm thinking
- about either a Syquest or a tape drive for my NeXTstation but I
- thought I'd check for recommendations and personal experiences. I'm
- leaning towards the Syquest due to what I would assume would be easier
- (and faster) access to archived data and I don't really need to
- backup anything besides my personal files since I have the CD-ROM
- with the OS so the smaller capacity wouldm't be too much of a
- problem for backups.
-
- If anyone can suggest sources for syquest drives and tape
- drives, it would be very much appreciated. I've heard that Mac
- suppliers are good for such things, but since most of my background
- is in the PC world, I don't have much experience or knowledge of Mac
- sources.
-
- Please e-mail responses to me and I will summarize if there's
- interest.
-
- Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions you can offer.
