Hey folks, I’m lucky enough to be in one of the few places on the internet that uses LTO.

I’m running LTO-8 tape. My current drive is kind of a dud, I’m interested in a new (to me) drive. Either internal in just an old desktop, or an external drive. I’m not afraid to shell out for it, but if I am I’m nervous to drop 2000 on just a random ebay seller. Anyone have any reputable sources? In the Seattle area if anyone knows a local one too.
