- We would like to connect a DAT recorder to an SS10 via its SCSI port
- for digital audio transfers between DAT tape and the SS10 disks, and
- for standard backups of the SS10 disks onto DAT tape.
-
- DATLINK from Ariel appears ideal for audio data transfers, but I'm
- not sure about its suitability for normal backups to DAT tape.
-
- I would therefore be pleased for any information on:-
-
- Experiences of DAT I/O interfaces, such as DATLINK on SS10s
-
- Whether it is possible to use an audio DAT recorder for standard DAT
- backups as well as audio format transfers.
-
- The formats used for writing to DAT tapes via SCSI interfaces, and
- the facilities provided by these formats.
