Chugging along nicely – thank you Trent… Do have a QUESTION however….. The 6250 tape cartridges I am using can contain up to 250 Megs of backup stuff. The average partition on my hard disk contains around 100 Megs or under. Is there any way I can put… say partition DH0: and DH1: on to the SAME backup tape? Otherwise have two "backups" on one tape – one following the other ? I am using the latest edition of QUARTERBACK as the software. At the moment I erase the tape – then do a backup of a partition. Am wondering what happens if I do a backup of partition DH0: then, without removing the tape, try a backup of DH1: ? Does the second DH1: backup write over the previous DH0:…. or does it find a new place on the tape and do the backup there ? If I do have to use one backup tape per HD partition… the so be it. Regards, HILARY.
