DDS tapes (essentially a data version of DAT) are about £2.50 each in the
UK.
Ebay yeilds a fair few DDS tape units for sale (SCSI).
DDS units have 2 capacities - the first uncompressed, the second compressed
(hardware compresison in the drive).
Capacities:
DDS1 2/4 Gb
DDS2 4/8 Gb
DDS3 12/24 Gb
DDS4 20/40 Gb
There are a few DDS3 and a lot od DDS2 on ebay at the mo.
