Can BA2K (server Pro) be used for SCSI backup work with a SCSI hard drive, as
opposed to a SCSI DAT tape drive? Could I use a SCSI mobile drive tray with a
SCSI hard drive in it, as opposed to the DAT drive, have BA2K recognize that
device during the CONFIG.SYS run, then 'format' it like it does each tape and
get this completely away from SCSI DAT tape drives.
Inquiring mind wants to know.
Thanks!

BackAgain/2 has a 2GB limitation on disk based backup output files. Thus making
it effectively useless for this purpose.
