Currently I've got a 120mb Colorado with the highspeed data transfer card
(non compression type) but there doesn't seem to be any support for it yet,
although there are people in the process of writting one.....
Under DrOS the drive works if though ..... I can fit about 90meg on a
40meg tape usng software compress software, and its not to slow either..
BTW...
HAs anyone finish the device controler yet for such drives ???
Cheers
