I don't have a StorageLoader, but I have the standalone firewire VXA-320 tape drive, and FreeBSD sees it just fine and it works with bacula: sa0 at sbp0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 sa0: <EXABYTE VXA-3a 3222> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-3 device As someone else noted, MacOS doesn't have the standard Unix tape drivers, so if you plug the tape drive into a Mac, bacula won't be able to do anything with it. I'd expect it'd work with Linux though, assuming Linux treats firewire tapes or other devices as SCSI ones just like FreeBSD does. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
