   I need to find a SCSI tape backup that will work under NetBSD.  It needs
   to be 24 gig compressed or so, and will be installed on a K7 system.

   I was considering the Onstream SC30 (30 gig, compressed), but found some
   posts on Linux & FreeBSD mailing lists stating it was not a 'standard'
   SCSI-2 device.  Is this known to work with NetBSD?

We're using an Exabyte stacker for 3 years here, 1.3.1 on an Alpha, works
fine.
