First posting to the group. I have received a lot of valuable info from you
guys. Now, an OT question:

What's a good tape drive to perform unmanned weekly backups for a Windows
XP Pro box running SQL server 2000?

Hi

I think alot of people have switched to DVD/CD for personal backups! If you
still want tape then you would need to consider how big the backups will be,
how much you are willing to spend, if you want to transport the device, if
it is to server more than one PC, then look at an online store an find
something that meets your requirements.
