Used to be using 2 x Sony AIT-5 drives (8 mm AIT cassettes) in a Qualstar RLS-4445 autochanger (45 slots; LVD SCSI connection). The system was retired early this year due to a mechanical failure of the autochanger. Drives are still operational and can be used to read old tapes, we have several hundred of them. > 2: Who on this list is NOT using a robot or changer device?

(number of drives / number > of slots) Qualstar TLS-8466 autochanger with 2 x IBM LTO-5 ULTRIUM-HH5 SAS drives and 66 regular slots, plus one private internal slot. Autochanger control connection is LVD SCSI.
