My place of employment is currently using an Overland Data DLT LibraryXpressLXB system. We use a simple shell script called by crontab to rotate nightly backups by calling the 'chio' command. Unit has a 10 tape magazine, can have up to two DLT drives installed, and also has a serial control port. You also have the option to program in a dedicated cleaning slot and automate the head cleaning sessions.
