RE: ULTRIUM TAPE DRIVE - LTO -- MIDRANGE-L

We did a complete unload/reload using this tape device.  Had to have our CE
jump through some hoops to get the thing to work.  Would never go back to
3570 - never.

                    Please respond to midrange-l






Just a question - we've heard from an IBM rep in Australia that these
drives
aren't certified to use as a server back device - therefore we can't have
one to be the sole backup drive for our AS/400's.  Does anyone know if this
is true or not ??
