Yes. Our just-announced SCO Unix 3.2 v2 has support for 3 different
DAT drives and the Exabyte. I believe that the DAT drives are
from Archive, Mountain and Tecmar. We also support CD-ROM in
this release and have completely reworked the disk driver to
speed it up (we are no longer recommending 3:1 interleaving
with this release).

Anyone who wants more information can contact their SCO Authorized
Reseller, mail sco!info or look for the announcement on sosco.
