[SunHELP] Tape Library solution

[Tim Longo]

I'm not sure if this fits into your price, but we use a Qualstar 4660 Tape
Library, on a Sun 220R.  It holds 60 tapes(upgradable to 120), can have up
to 6 tape drives, and uses robotic control.  It works really well with
Veritas Netbackup, and is very fast with AIT2 drives.  I currently use it to
backup Sun's, and a Network Appliance filer.
