well i looked at tape drives a while ago.. however the cost/mb is so large that I looked for another solution.
So my solution is this...I use SATA drives and pretend they are tape drives by using vchanger. I put a 4 bay hot swap SATA drive enclosure into the bacula server, I can write to 4 drives at a time. I can then remove the drives and put them in a flight case for off-site storage. ---Guy Sent from my iPad > On 16 Sep 2013, at 18:00, Téïcée Bacula <bacul...@teicee.com> wrote: > > Hi Greg > > If you are looking for a kind of "USB tape drive" you should have a look > at RDX systems.
