I will not advise any only-drive LTO solution: if you need to spend less money, you could take a look at the Tandbergdata's (opps: Overland) 1U storageloader with LTO4 or 5, it's very cheap. Any "no library" LTO solutions, will require a lot of operator work, it will make your solution quite unusable. > Does any one know the book on Bacula from Philipp Storz?
