I wouldn't recomment SATA-attached tape drives. ATA attached tape drives never seemed to work reliably under linux (I don't have any experience myself, though). SATA might work better or worse - I don't know any reports at all. Plain SCSI is reliable and well supported under all OSes I know - I'd use that. FC works, too, but is more difficult to set up. > The tapedrive support for Linux SD and Windows SD are equal? Probably not... Windows does things completely differen, so the Windows SD has to do things completely different, too. As far as I know, the SD (and DIR) on Windows work. You'll not get any support from Kern (and others), though - the code was contributed but is not really maintained or even supported. Kern himself hates coding for windows, and all the other active developers I know of don't work under windows, too. So, if you want something reliable and supported, use linux and a SCSI tape drive.
