Hi,

The DLT-8000 in my L9 tape array has started to run really s-l-o-w and I
suspect it's in serious need of servicing (or simple replacing with a good
DLT-8000 while it's serviced).

Are there any service kits around for DLT-8000's supplied either by Sun or
generic kits from HP (who make the L9's) or Quantum (who make the DLT
drives)?

Are there any online guides provided by Sun for servicing DLT drives?

Craig.
