Hey All,

The company I work for currently has an HPE LTO-8 Ultrium 30750 SAS External Tape Drive. We want to begin using it to read and write backups. However, when we contacted HPE to get access to the drivers needed to get the drive working, we were given a $1400 quote to renew our access.

Is there a cheaper way we can get our Tape Drive working? (i.e Open source software) or is there another Tape Drive maker we could go to for a cheaper tape drive?
