- I am considering purchasing some form of drive to backup my
- 80 MB internal hard drive. I originally was thinking in terms
- of a tape backup unit, but about all I can find at the major
- Mac mail order houses are the $1500+ DAT drives. I don't need
- near this capacity, or cost. Thus I have started to look at
- removable hard drives. I am currently looking at the Iomega
- Mac Transportable 90. It seems to be quick, reliable, and
- relatively inexpensive $500. I would like to hear any impressions
- of this drive (or other removables or tape backup units).
- Please email me, and I will summarize the responses. Thank-you
