What is the difference between an MSL5000 & MSL6000 unit?
Anyone have a clue or is it just a marketing thing?

Re: What is the difference between MSL5000 & 6000 unit?
Actually the major differences are drives and IO performance.
The MSL5000 has in IO module in it that limits through-put to 80 MB/sec.
No auto power on feature. Had to touch the GUI to enable power up.
Drives supported: DLT8000
SDLT110/220
SDLT160/320
LTO1
You actually could plug in SDLT600
LT02
LT03 (non HotPlug)
but it would be a capacity play. You would
not be happy with the performance.
Supported Hot plug drives.
There are 2 versions of MSL6000;
origianl version had an IO module in it that limited through-put to 160 MB/sec.
Added auto power-on feature. You no longer have to touch the GUI for unit to power up after a power fail.
Drives supported: LTO2
LT03 (capacity play only)
SDLT600
Supported Hot Plug drives.
2nd generation MSL6000 doesn't have an IO board that limits through-put.
No longer supports Hot-plug drives or Power supplies in the 5U box.
New Drive shoes- SCSI connector on Drive shoe instead of drives.
Only supports the following drives:
SDLT600, LT02, and LT03.
