[NCLUG] IDE(ATAPI?) tape drives

[Quent]

I've been using a Seagate 20Gb Travan tape drive with good results.
The disks on the server are SCSI and the tape drive is IDE. The
media isn't cheap though; it's about $40 a tape. The "ide-tape"
module works well with my 2.2.16 kernel; haven't tried
it under 2.4 yet.
