With Gary's point below using the PT Gateway you can slide in Encrypted
disk underneath the other appliances don't support encryption.  With
using your own disk you can leverage your volume purchasing power with
your existing disk vendor as well.

We are looking at vtls as well.
You might check into the ibm protectier 7650.

This is a head end that you attach to whatever storage you have.
Emulates a lot of libraries, including the 3484 and 3494 I believe.

Should know more in a couple of weeks after we review the answers to our
RFPs.

We are currently looking at adding a Disk to Disk backup solution.  Our
current solution has a 3584 tape library with LTO-5 drives using TKLM.
 
We have looked at Exagrid and Data Domain.  Also, I believe HP has a
solution.
 
We will need to have encryption on the device and the ability to
replicate between the two disk units.
 
Anyone have any comments or recommendations?  
 
Thanks,
Kevin
