We're going with the IBM 3584 library with LTO2 (until LTO3 is out)... after
all of the research that I had done, this seemed to be the answer to all of
our problems. :D  Especially with the individual fibre attach drives.  I'm
currently trying to engineer this in with our new SAN/NAS solution, the EMC
Clariion CX500 mit the 702g NAS head.  I'm sure there will be some issues,
but we'll figure it out!

Hi, I am looking at replacing the tape library within my managed server
environment and was looking for some opinions on the choices. Currently I am
using a StorageTek L700 with DLT8000 drives and I am looking at replacing it
with the ADIC Scalar i2000 with LTO gen 2 drives. 

I would be grateful for any information regarding the two system choices in
particular the ADIC i2000 as I have no previous experience with this model.

Thanks in advance, 

Steve.
