I'm looking for a "19-slot Tape Magazine" (P/N: 175198-B21) for a Compaq SSL2020 AIT Tape Library. I've found a few hits on Google but so far no place that is either still in business or has them in stock. Plus the current "retail" prices is about $300 and I'd like to find something cheaper if...

Hardware raid question (do I need a 4-port card) by [email protected]
I've got 4X60 GB identical drives that I'd like to use for home office RAID in an XP server box.
