Tape Backup Drives for SuSE 9.0

mephitic · 01-29-2005, 01:06 PM

We've started running a mail server for about 75 users and I'm looking
to install a tape backup drive to backup mail on a nightly basis. I'm
curious if anyone can recommend a good reliable drive that works well
in SuSE 9.0. I've got an Ultra 320 Adaptec SCSI card installed
running a couple Seagate Cheetah drives. Any recommendations would be
great!

Thanks

I would say any SCSI tape drive should work. It depends on how much data and what kind of backup scheme you want to use.

I have a DLT 4000 and a Sony AIT. Absolete by todays standards but still functional.
