I bought 3 of them for me and my customers as they are at a reasonable
prize and came with 3 years support contracts by default.
However, one of the trays fell down and broke. The superlodaer
firmware refuses to do anything without the trays plugged in. As this
has been a user error, service contract didn't kick in and it took
Quantum 1 month to deliver a new tray. 1 month without a backup,
just because they decided to refuse operations with only one tray
plugged in. Keep in mind, it has a mailslot, you would not need a
tray at all for some sort of emergency service.
No idea if others are better, but this is really a show stopper for me.
Apart from that: the changer is somewhat slow, but it works and loader
is recognized by mtx, mt and bacula without any special configuration.

Adrian
