Hi!

Linux fileserver, with a builtin DDS4 DAT (SCSI I guess).
The backup is performed in a form of tar backup.

I am looking for some solution that would provide a fast and efficient
restore of a backup on a win2k computer.

How about buying a external SCSI case and having an internal DAT
having installed in it. Would I have to mind the type of a case or
would any do?
How would such a case+DAT be recognized from a Win2k system? How can I
access the data on the DAT from win2k?
