Thanks everyone for your recommendations. It looks like that Travan is a
good deal at $139.
I also like corpsys. I have been to their site before, and called to
inquire about this drive:
http://www.corpsys.com/cgi-bin/select?930578617844731&specials&4586NPR
For $99 they offer a six year warranty on this drive as well. Its a huge
beast, though. Does linux support changing of tapes?
I'm also worried that by the time I buy the external case, and the $99
warranty, I'll be up to that $500 that I wanted to avoid..
Guess I'll wait a while and make up my mind for sure..
Dave
