Hello ADSMer's,

We are trying to decide on which LTO tape library to purchase for our UNIX /
NT environment. This library will be replacing a STK 9710 with DLT 7000
drives.

Our environment is:
        TSM Server 4.2.1.11, on AIX 4.3.3 / Winterhawk node.
        Clients range from 30+NT servers,
        150 desktops,
        SAP R/3 on Oracle  (500GB on S7A),
        SAP BW on Oracle (150 GB on SP2's),
        and 15+ other Oracle databases on both NT and SP2's

We are looking at purchasing a combination of either the IBM 3583 and 3584
or the STK L80 and L700.
We would be interested in hearing any experiences (good and bad) for either
the IBM or STK products.

Thank You,
