  12.   Has anyone successfully connected a SCSI tape drive?  I am thinking about
  13. getting one, and I am looking for suggestions, sources, helpful hints, etc.
  14.  
  15.   I currently have a RAMFast (rev D), and it has the built-in tape backup
  16. feature.  My father has an Apple DMA SCSI card, and it would be useful if we
  17. could share the drive (not connected simultaneously, of course) from time to
  18. time.  So basically, I have two questions:
  19.  
  20. 1. Does Archiver support SCSI tape drives? (and with RAMFast and/or DMA SCSI?)
  21.  
  22. 2. What companies sell SCSI tape drives that people have and would recommend
  23.    that I get? (approximate prices would also be helpful)
  24.  
  25. Thanks in advance,
  26.    William
