Re: Connecting an external SCSI tape drive or Library to a c3000

I agree with your initial recommendation to keep the DL360. Either buy maintenance on it or buy a newer DL3x0 server.

Check if it is compatible to your autoloader:

Re: Connecting an external SCSI tape drive or Library to a c3000
Thanks for the replies. I like the idea of using the PCI Blade. I think using the FC/SCSI bridge would turn out to be too expensive since they don't have a Fiber Channel SAN today. Do you know if there's a SCSI PCI card that is certified for it? The HP web site states that no HP PCI cards are certified and the only 3rd party options that I can find on the partner site are very specialized cards, no SCSI cards.

Note: the card external connectors are at the front side of the blade (of course) ...
Hope this helps!

SolutionGo with a SCSI card that the autoloader supports, as long as the bus speed/power comply with the expansion blade rules.
