Heh.  I've got the exact same unit, and am similarly pleased with it.  I 
particularly like the ability, using the mail slot, to load a tape not in 
the magazine without unloading the magazine or any tapes from it.  The 
scalability is nice too.

Of course, as Toralf was looking at a 1U unit, I'm guessing that space 
might be an issue.  It's only fair to warn him that the Overland is huge 
-- mine's a table-top unit, but I'm guessing it'd take up about 6U in a 
rack.
