This depends on your license.
We pay per tape drive, and you (apparantly) pay a flat rate regardless
of how many drives you have.

So, if your license is such that you are paying per drive, then there
may be a considerable difference between the licensing per drive, vs per
terabyte of usable storage, versus DSU (free?)
