Yeah, I think when they reliazed what a PITA it was going to be to write so many different drivers they saw the light that is standards. At the time we last bought a SCSI tape drive the OnStream stuff was still non standard so we went with AIT from Sony. I'm now looking at OnStream ADR for home use. If I get a drive, I'll be sure to report it's operability with FreeBSD. Brandon D.
