Re: [Veritas-bu] Is anyone using a HP MSL 8096 tape library?

I have used the IBM TS 3310 as well as the 3584. Both are very solid
systems and work well. IBM support has been excellent as well. If I
place a call for any issue I get a call back within 15 min, usually
sooner.
Have you looked at Quantum? I have also used a ADIC (now Quantum) I2000
library, which also worked well. If I had to choose, I would prefer the
IBM hardware though.

We're looking to buy a new tape library and the MSL 8096 is a favorite
so far with the IBM TS 3310 being a close second. Also looked at the Sun
SL500 but they are a mavbe due to Sun's financial problems. HP and IBM
are doing OK.
For pricing we were quoted about the same for each one with the
difference being IBM support is 3 times HP support.
We know we can't upgrade the HP, but pricewise it's the same to buy
another 8096 compared to buying a new expansion for the TS 3310 and 2
drives.
Looking for any opionions if anyone has used it.
