We have a Quantum SDLT superloader that we need to move to a different room than where the backup server resides.
Tape drives are being replaced about every 6 weeks (under warranty) and we're thinking it's some type of envirnmentatl thing (EMF ? Radon ?) temperature is okay, and humidity isn't bad either. The servers in that room are having no problems, but we've had different brands of tape drives go bad often in that room.
Has anyone ever used a Scsi- Fiber media converter with any success ? We're thinking about moving the tape drive to a different floor, and we have lots of fiber runs to that floor
I'm looking at an FX51 from
Thanks
