Yeah, the LTO is excellent. We're still trying to convince them to buy it for us though. It isn't the shark, although there are two of those in the building. This one is the 3584-L32 tape library. The SAN made a huge difference in our backups times with the DLT because it eliminated any servers we had that were backing up via the network, with the LTO though, the speed difference was insane.
