- SCSI
- IDE
- Parallel
- Floppy (pry outdated)
I don't yet have a SCSI controller, so unless SCSI tape drives are
*way* better than the others, I would like to avoid SCSI (or unless
the tape drive comes with the controller or I can buy a cheap
SCSI controller for it).
I am already using up the 4 slots for IDE drives, so that means that
I probably can't have an IDE one.
I think that floppy interface is really slow and they probably don't
make drives that use it anymore.
Finally, I do have a free parallel port, so that is an option.
I would like this drive to be pretty fast and hold quite a bit (i.e.
over 1GB before compression). I don't care about size at all. I do
care about cost of the drive and the media ;)
Thanks in advance. Please forward your replies to my email address
since I am not on the Kernel mailing list...
