Mt.Everest Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 Hello, I am about to do a major upgrade to a music studio. We have been using Retrospect 5.x on a G4 running OS9.2. We have about 30 DDS-4 tapes full of data all working wonderfully as we regularly backup/restore. Now we are upgrading to a G5/Panther 10.3.3/ Retrospect 6.x. Is there anything that will make this smoother? Will the storage sets created in OS9 be compatible in OSX? Will I see a performance slowdown overall? etc, etc. I know its going to be a headache in some ways so I want make it as painless as possible. We use UW-SCSI and have purchased the new ATTO SCSI card that works in a G5 (per Digidesign). We use UW SCSI drives, a SONY DDS-4 tape drive, and various ATA and Firewire drives. Any Advice would be appreciated. thanks MT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natew Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 Hi Your old sets will be read only in Retrospect 6.0 so you will have to start your scripts from scratch. Other than that you should be fine. Atto has some new SCSI drivers for panther that should help this run smoothly. Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
