 This thread is bring back sounds of my weekly tape backup --
 Fwooooot........FWEEEEEEEEEEEET..... FWEEEEEEEEEET....fwooooot...

Those QIC drives that ran over a floppy interface were slooooow. I
ended up scavenging an Adaptec SCSI card and DDS-1 drive from work that
was getting tossed out.

I'm constantly amazed, thinking back to those days and how much we were
able to do with such little storage, memory, and computing power.
