Hi,

I have an Exabyte EXB-218 tape library for sale.  It holds eighteen 4mm
tapes + a cleaning tape (not included) for a total capacity of 144GB.
It can preform automated backup and restore, remote storage and
automated archiving.  This library contains one DDS-2 tape drive (with
space for a second drive) and the firmware has been upgraded to the 
latest revision (4.13.5).  The library is in excellent mechanical 
condition, and the robotic arm works flawlessly.  The case has some 
minor damage on the lower back part of its base (about one inch), and a 
crack by the door lock which I'm in the process of fixing.  These slight
imperfections do not effect the operation of the library.  


Here are some more detailed specs:

- Capacity 72/144 GB  
- Supports up to 2 DAT drives and 18 cartridges (One drive installed) 
- Data transfer rate Up to 2 MB/sec. & 7.2GB/hour 
- Uses 120m 4mm DDS-2 media
- Fast SCSI-2 interface (4 HD50 connectors on back)
- Narrow/Single-ended  
- Recording method: DAT DDS-2 Helical Scan  
- 3" x 1" LCD display panel
- Reliability, robotics   : 1,250,000 mean cycles between failures  
- Reliability, Tape Drive : 200,000 mean cycles between failures 
- Physical dimensions  Tower: 22 in. (h) x 9.5 in. (w) x 21.4 in. (d)
  (55.9 cm x 24 cm x 54.4 cm)

I'm asking for $450, and would be able to drop it off anywhere in 
Madison and the surrounding areas.  I would rather not ship it since it 
weighs around 90Lbs, and I don't think it'll survive the trip.  Please 
leave me email if you are interested, don't forget to take the anti spam 
part out of my email before replying, thanks.
