(number of drives / number >> of slots) > Storage Tek SL24 -- one drive. Originally an LTO-4 drive but I removed > the drive and replaced it with a reconditioned LTO-5. I support organizations today with the following equipment: StorageTek Sl x with 12 LTO 6 drives and approximately y slots (New Telecom customer to be deployed. I might return information later if you really want it). StorageTek Sl 500 with four LTO4 drives and approximately 240 slots (Army Unity of Brazil). Dell TL-2000 with two LTO5 drive and 24 slots (DATACOM GPON, Switch, and other network equipment manufacturer). Dell TL-2000 with two LTO5 drive and 24 slots (North Minas Federal Insitute). Dell TL-2000 with one LTO4 drive and 24 slots (UNESP Medicine University). Dell TL-2000 with two LTO4 drive and 24 slots (Lagoa Santa City Hall). Dell TL-2000 with two LTO4 drive and 24 slots (Airforce Traffic Control Department). Dell TL-2000 with two LTO4 drive and 24 slots (Acre Court of Accounts) - iSCSI Bridge Dell Tl-1000 with one LTO4 drive and 8 slots (ESAMC University). Single LTO5 Drive (Shopping Center). Single LTO4 RAck-mountable Drive (Farroupilha Federal Institute). As you see, Dell is the most used equipment. I estimate only 20% of my customers only use disk-based solutions. According to Google Trends, Brazil is one of the 3 countries where Bacula is more popular than every other backup software, including proprietary software with tons of marketing funding (Veeam, Netbackup, ARCserve, Commvault). If you make an online form of these questions I would be glad to ask people from our community to fill it. > Best regards, Regards, > Kern > Regards, -- =========================================================================== Heitor Medrado de Faria | EB-1 Visa | LPIC-III | ITIL-F | EMC 05-001| Bacula Systems Certified Administrator II • Bacula Enterprise does not charge per backup size and has plugins for many applications.
