[Veritas-bu] Have to get rid of STK L180

[Johnny Østergaard (JOE)]

Hi Cheryl
 
I would try to sell it.
The easy way is to contact a brooker eg www.epoka.com (that company I know and they are ok)
 
By the way, the L180 is one of the best tapelibraries you can get and I wouldn't trade ours for anything else the an L700e og L1400 (SL8500 would also be ok)

I'm wondering what people do with their old hardware.  We have an L180 (in Denver with 8 SDLT drives) and L80 (in Miami with 2 SDLT drives).  We need to keep one of them to process old tapes but need to get rid of one due to space constraints.  My first question - Is anyone interested in buying one of these?  Second question - How do other companies get rid of their old backup equipment?  I have someone that will take the L80 but then I found out it still has value on the books.  Just thought I'd check to see if there was any interest in purchasing one of these.  FYI - SUN/StorageTek has quoted us $4K+ to pack/ship/certify the L80, to get it to Denver.
