I think that the Wangtek is the same one that I have..   The ID number is
5150 ES, but it takes 6250 (250 meg) tapes..   My hard drive is an old, old,
old Micropolis 1375..   It doesn't abort at all, but like I said, the backup
is slower than christmas..     I wonder..   I'm going to try throwing a
Syquest onto the GS and see if I set the RamFast so that it will back up to
it to see what kind of transfer rates I get out of that...
