Editorial Reviews :
The OnStream DI30 internal IDE (ATAPI) drive with OnStream Echo software is the ideal removable storage solution for desktops and power desktops. The OnStream DI30 Removable Storage Drive works in Windows just like any other drive, giving you access files to files from any application. With 30 GB of capacity per cartridge, you can forget about high media costs or the inconvenient 'backup shuffle' you get with other removable storage products. And you can finally back up today's large hard drives on one cartridge.
Buyer Reviews :
This is a great drive. Makes creating and managing backups a snap. Because it will also track multiple iterations of a document over time, you can 'back-track' to an earlier version if needed. Top flight performance for the price.
However, because the tape drive is treated just like another hard disk, some of your other applications may behave oddly.
An example, Cybermedia Uninstaller tries to scan _every_ drive before it will load. If you have a lot of material backed up on your OnStream TBU, Uninstaller will try to scan it. Very, very slowly. (Remeber, the OnStream is about 1/50 the speed of a hard drive. I have a machine on which Uninstaller is now useless because it would take two days to scan the tape.) If you live by Uninstaller, consider a different backup option (or a different removal program, CleanSweep is very good). Sorry, I have not tested this TBU with other removal software (e.g. Norton Uninstall, Remove-It, CleanSweep).
