A parallel-port tape-backup and recovery system, FileSafe SideCarII ($475) is designed for peer-to-peer networks, stand-alone PCs, and portable computers. From Mountain Network Solutions (Scotts Valley, CA), the system's integrated pass-through allows sharing of the port with a printer. The unit stores up to 305 MB of data on a single DC2120 cartridge and has a data transfer rate of up to 10 MB per minute. The system is compatible with FileSafe for Windows and ships with the company's Format-on-the-Fly, which formats the tape as it is used.
