Hi all,

I went to Networld+Interop 96 in Sydney.
I saw a product from Exabyte called "Mammoth".
Have you heard this product before?

It is a 8mm tape drive, can save upto 20 GB (uncompressed),
and 40 GB (compressed). It can backup 20GB/second!!!
I asked the price for the drive, it costs AUS$9000.
I asked the price for the tape,  it costs AUS$250.

I was wondering if this beast can work under Linux.
Do you know anyone have used this before?

Cheers,

Chai Harjo
