Hello,
I talked to someone and they said in the long run, getting a high
capacity removable drive such as the iomega jaz or syquest's newest syjet
is not worth it; that for the same price ($399-499) of getting the
removable drive, plus the cartridges, I could get a fixed scsi disk in the
capacity around 4 gigs; what do you guys think? The primary reason I'm
thinking of the removable drives is because I use my system for recording
and producing music; thus I directly write the songs to the hard disk,
and a lot of the time one song will cover up to 90 megs. So I run out of
space very quickly; I'm thinking that with the iomega jaz or syquest's
syjet I could buy as many cartridges as I need without having to
comtemplate a hard drive upgrade. What do you guys recommend? Your help
will be appreciated very much.
