- in addition I was wondering if, and how much Stacker affects the programs
- that are running. Does it slow it down,
-
- Also, when you are storing to a tape backup, say a Colorado 250 Jumbo,
- how is the data saved. If I originally have a 160 meg drive, and
- Stack it, will I be able to backup the "320 Megs" of the 160
- drive.
