// to USB for tape?

[Skunkboy]

Is it possible to use a parallel drive on a USB connection? I'm thinking of an external 20 gig Colorado.

I was curious as to if any adapters will allow it to work.

I've got 3 x 200Gb drives that use USB in external boxes. (Don't ask why so much space, they're empty at present :()

Skunkboy would fill them with videos! :D

:eek: You would think such a horrible thing! :eek: You make me sound like some computer junkie who can't be without his digital idiot box and in turn has to keep uncompressed videos on their computer instead of saving them as something smaller. :eek: :D

And mp3s.... :D

[Skunkboy]

mp3's aren't squat... mpg's and wmv's are barely anything either. Nothing beats a nice 12gig avi

That is much bigger than the 70+ MB PSD that Joe wanted to send to my sister by email! He had to send a disc, because he didn't know how to FTP to a free host server! :D

fire up your ftp server... I want to change drives here. I'll send you the 12gig then redownload it from you -oops, that would take years LOL :D ok, I'll be nice.
