It is a stand alone unit with a 10 tape stacker that is SCSI attached to our FLEX box. I think we paid around $6,000 for it back in May of 2004. We got it from Sandy Dornick (sdornick@beachfinancial.com (727) 725-2500) at Beach Financial. IBM no longer provides maintenance for the drive, but we have a local company that supports it. I would guess the price has come down since there is a big push to get folks off of the FLEX platform. I am not sure what you mean by portable, but it is probably small enough to pick up and move around if that is your requirement. Ed Zell Illinois Mutual Life (309) 636-0107 ..
