There is no tape drive at all connected to it. I do however have an identical HDD (WD CAVIAR 1210) 212 MByte available and a TEKRAM DC600C IDE controller. I am interested in using this controller to provide a 'RAID 1' capability for the BSD system. Anyone have any experience with them, or know that they will/wont work. Of course I had no problems with them on a DOS system, their native habitat. Any/all info much appreciated. Reply here or directly to my email address garry@cyanea.apana.org.au
