Hi Florian,
No, i've named the "StorageLoader 1U", not the "T40", the T40 is much bigger!
the 1U is the entry level of the autloader automation family.
A NEOs StorageLoader (ex tandbergdata), 8 Slots - LTO-5 SAS cost ~ 2850€, only
1100€ more than a single drive solution.
If you save 1100€ but you get an unstable solution, requiring a lot of manual
work and backup that gets waiting for your intervention to continue... you will
loose much more money.
Regards
