1.    I am NOT using a tape-based system, half-inch or otherwise. Nightly backups are written to hard disk drives and then copied to a cloud drive. 2. Likewise, I am NOT using a robot or changer. On 10/21/2017 09:32 AM, Alan Brown wrote: Straw poll time for people using tape-based systems

We are currently using LTO-5 but hope to upgrade to LTO-6/7 in the future.  We are also looking at backing up to a remote site (tapes are currently taken off site).  Possibly to a cloud storage. Steven Hammond P.S. Autochanger would be great but I doubt management would go for the price (ha).
