the LTO start/stop characteristics are something to take in consideration.
Data on a 100 GB. volume can (and will) be scattered across the tape, so
when you are restoring a lot of data, you will see long seek times. We
choose for 3590 over LTO for this reason.

Eric,
Do you know anything about AIT's start/stop characteristics?  Did you
consider AIT before making your decision to go with 3590?
