Get the Sony SDT-5000 from Computer Products Corporation @ 1-800-338-4273.
It is a 4 gig umcompressed - 8 gig compressed drive and sells for $825
It's SCSI 1 or 2 compliant and is as fast a 4MM dat drive there is. Real
speed without compression is approximately 21-23megs per minute. (DON'T
be fooled by the 88 meg per second rating you might see, these are
theoretical speeds with compression (soft and hard) and don't exeist.
For instance the Sony is rated for 88 megs per minute as is the Conner
dds-2 drives. But they are still the fastest 4 mm dats around (and a
decent price too!)
