Funny, I was going to ask a simular question!
Actually I'm looking into purchasing an Exabyte Drive for mass storage
and to import/export stuff from an Abekas DDR. I was wondering if anyone
who has experience with this type of stuff could give me some advice?
What is the best driver for the Exabyte (Amiga platform of course)?
How long would it take to transfer 1 minute of video from an Abekas to an
8mm Exabyte? Approx.
Can the older 8000 Exabyte tapes be read by the newer 8500 series of
Exabyte drives?
Any problems with the Exabyte/Abekas combo.
I would appreciate any help I can get on this subject!
Thanks in advance!
