Tape Drive for MM11

[kbeall]

I am in need of a source for backup tape drive for meridian mail. The ntp calls for viper 2150es or tandberg tdc 4220. Is there any others that will work?
Also, the system tape we got with this used system is not the same serial number as what is in the mer mail config. listed either place. Am I right that this tape cannot be used to do a port expansion? Do I need the tape with the same serial number as the switch to get into the upgrade menu?
thanks
Kenny
