Hey guys,
thank you both for the reply. I knew that you would recommend me the Cache-A Prime. 😉 I already read a lot of posts about it. It is really just perfect in every way, I know! But not for my boss! Bob is absolutely right. And I indeed was looking on ebay for some stuff today 😉
The problem is not the LTO dive, there are a lot out there, its more the lack of PCI-X cards to connect to a G5. As far as my research goes there are no proper pci-x SAS cards and the fibre channel lto drives are really expensive.
I think we will end up with a SCSI solution. (I really dont like the idea of buying a new lto-4 SATA drive). Maybe we can get a used ATTO PCI-X Ultra4 card. (They still cost 650 Swiss Franks new….puhhh)
What do you guys think about that solution? And what software can you recommend us?
I really appreciate your help, thanks
