Can anyone recommend a tape drive that meets these requirements?

- reliable

- stores 200+ Gb on a tape or single set of tapes
If it's easy and obvious how to eject and insert tapes, that's a plus, since this is going to be in a location without any real techies.
Thanks!
I would expect any SCSI drive to work. Choose your vendors and ask them: in this market they're well aware of Linux. Even Dell.
Once you have some candidates, then ask here (and maybe nahant, where they take their computing more seriously:-))
Thanks to John and Joel. I didn't realize how straightforward it is.
