>I am looking at expanding the tape storage on our ADSM server. We are
>running ADSM on an RS/6000 with 4 7331-305 tape libraries (IBM). We
>currently have about 1,400 nodes on the system and we are backing up about
>20GB a day. I currently have about 1.2TB of data stored on the system.
>
>The two libraries that I am currently favoring are:
>
>   Hewlett Packard 7248w ( DLT7000 technology, 48 Slots 2 Drives
(expandable
>to 4))
>
>   SpectraLogic 10000 (AIT2 Technology, 40 slots, 2 Drives).
>
>
>Has anyone had any experience using either of these 2 boxes on ADSM.
>
>
>Any other recomendations for something with 1 TB or better native capacity
>in the $30,000 - $50,000 (U.S.) price range.

>Thank you
