90meg.

hmm, i don't have any new ones, so the chart you are talking about makes
no sense to me. Can you write to the 150's with the 90M drive? perhaps,
format the cartridges as 90's? Is that what it means?
just curious.

I have no clue other than the vague chart on the back. It looks like a 150
drive will read write format with a * for reduced performance a 90 meg cart.
It does not say anything about using 150m media in a 90m drive. This makes
me think the media will fit but will have to be formatted. To be sure I
would contact IOmega.
The only Bernoulli drive I have ever used was a just released 20m (I think)
back on a then new 286.
If you are still interested contact me off list. With the arrangements I
have with the scrapper I got them from to list members I am only looking for
$5.00 ea. plus shipping. If they are to be going into commercial use that
price WILL be higher.
