Sytos+ was mentioned as a choice for backup with an Adaptec/Exabyte combination, and was the only one I knew about so I bought it in spite of my experience with Sytos–, which someone here described as 'the worst backup package I've ever seen'. Which sentiment I echo. Anyway, Sytos+ is at least acceptable, but they still ought to look at some of the more popular packages for guidance in how to write a backup program. Exabyte, BTW, has about the friendliest and most accessable tech support staff in the business, surprising considering their monopoly on 8mm drives. They have a BBS, too, but prefer to deal with tech questions verbally. Nice folks.
