The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

LTO3 Autoloader Recommendation

Asked by fireguy1125 in Backup Exec, Hard Drives & Storage, Backup & Restore Software

Tags: LTO1, LTO3, autoloader, tape backup, drive, backup exec 10d, symantec, veritas, quantum

Currently have a Certance 8 Slot, LTO1 Autoloader w/ Seagate Ultrium06242-xxx drive, Using Backup Exec 10d, on a Dell PowerEdge 2650 Server with Adaptec 29160 Ultra160 SCSI card.

Need to upgrade to new 8-slot Autoloader, looking for LTO3 maybe even LTO4.

Would like to keep Backup Exec 10d if possible with new autoloader. But if necessary to upgrade, then it's fine (not sure if old version 10d, will work with newer autoloaders/drives)

Need compatible new SCSI card for server and drive, that is dependable, reliable and works with the autoloader/drive.

Backup about 170GB incremental mon-thurs, and about 500GB fridays and monthly. Steadily growing about 1GB/month.
