- Description: TECMAR QT250E QIC-150/QIC-02 (NOT SCSI) External Tape Backup Drive.
-
- Performance: 5-6Mb/min sustained, streams better than QIC-150/SCSI drives
-
- Capacity: 250Mb/DC6250, 150Mb/DC6150, 100Mb/DC600A w/o compression
- 500Mb 300Mb 200Mb w/ compression
-
- Condition: unused, in shrinkwrap.
-
- Controller/ Tecmar sells controller/software separately. I have both, but
- Software: the controller is used and I never had a chance to test it
-
- I'd prefer to bundle the drive with a new Everex QIC-02 controller,
- but I do not have a cable for it (both Everex and Tecmar OEM from
- Wangtek, but their QIC-02 controllers have different types of
- the external connector). On the bright side, the software that
- comes with Everex supports data compression, and the controller
- itself (EV-811) is supported by most Unices.
-
- Price: $349/OBO + $9 s/h (this model is listed for ~$2,000)
