BOCA RATON, FL (April 27, 1993) SyDOS, a division of SyQuest Technology,

recently announced Microsoft DOS version 6.0 operating system.

Based on state-of-the-art Winchester technology, all of SyDOS's products
driver software have been modified to support all of the features of DOS
6.0 operating system. The latest version of Microsoft DOS has many new
features for DOS users; among them is the ability for built-in disk
compression, memory management, file back-up and virus protection which is
included within the operating system.

"The opportunity for SyDoS is The back-up capability which Microsoft has
built into this product offering," stated Linda Haury, vice president of
marketing at SyDOS. "DOS 6.0 offers three different back-up scenarios:
full back-up, incremental back-up or differential back-up. What better
means is there than SyDOS removable cartridge disk drives to store this
backed-up data? The product is a natural fit for back-up functions," she
adds. Microsoft DOS' back-up feature supports network drives and removable
drives such as the SyDOS line of removeable cartridge disk drives.

Removability Advantages

The SyDOS family of removable cartridge disk drives plays an important role

removable cartridges are ideal for those applications where security and
confidentiality are important. And, when performing the back-up procedure,
there is no special software to learn, simply use DOS commands.
