We've got a Quantum i40 (40 slots - 1 or 2 LT05 drives) SAS connected.
Can be partitioned if you wish.  Not used the encryption Key Management on it 
so can't comment on that.
Well pleased with ours, been totally reliable for the 10 months we've had it, 
and the price was very good.
Hope this helps... Allan.

Subject: [Networker] LTO-5 based tape library?

We are considering updating our OverLand Neo 2000 tape library with a LTO-5 
based library.  Our current library has a single LTO-3 drive and is iSCSI 
attached to a SUN/Oracle SPARC server.  We are looking at a SAS attached 
library, we think we need a single LTO-5 drive with around twenty slots.  The 
biggest concern we have is key encryption, the Overland and SpectraLogic 
solutions look nice and simple.  Anyone have suggestions or comments regarding 
a good LTO-5 tape library that works well with NetWorker and Sun/Oracle SPARC 
hardware.

Thanks.
