Managers,
I am looking for a high-capacity tape drive for daily backups. I would
prefer to buy Digital, and the two models that I am considering are
the DLT TZ88 (40Gb cartridge) and the DAT TLZ9L (32Gb autoloader on
8 separate DAT tapes).
First I would like to know if anyone has negative reports for either of
these drives w.r.t. reliability. (I am suspicious of the reliability
of the autochanger, for example.)
Secondly, does anyone know if the driver for the TLZ9L presents the entire
set of tapes to the backup software as a single 32Gb tape? I would like
to avoid having to do anything special in order to manage the multiple
tapes.
Your advice is eagerly awaited (I *must* order today! ;).
Regards,
Ian
