Does anyone still use QIC tape carts anymore?
I am doing some housecleaning and came across a bunch of tape carts I
used to use for backups 3 or 4 PCs ago before I got a writeable DVD
drive. I wonder if these are useful to anyone or should I just toss
them?
Inventory:
Four DC-2120 carts. Three are brand new, still in the original
wrapping. One is used (see note below re bulk erasure). 120 mb
capacity.
36 Travan-1 carts. One is brand new, still in the original wrapping.
The rest are used with data that may still be sensitive. I would bulk
erase them but then you would need a drive which could duplicate the
factory formatting. 400 mb capacity. These I will bulk erase and
trash unless someone can format them.
2 cleaning carts.
If you or anyone you know of could use these please let me know and make
an offer. Minimum acceptable offer is the cost to ship them to you, but
I wouldn't mind getting a few bucks more. :-)
