Optical disk jukebox

[Shoshana Abrass]

  We're thinking of buying an optical disk 'jukebox' for our sgi's. So far
  we've only found one vendor that has an sgi driver: Introl, which sells
  two types of 10-disk systems, one which uses the Ricoh drive and one
  which uses the Maxtor/Tahiti drive.

  Does anyone have any experience with
	1. The Tahiti r/w optical drive?
	2. Introl's jukebox, either on an sgi or another unix machine?
	3. Another company that has a jukebox with an sgi driver?

  Other suggestions for how we could store 10 Gigabytes of data, cheaply,
  are welcome! (the 10G jukebox is around $15k). I've heard that there
  are good exabyte jukeboxes out there, but people want filesystem-type
  access to data.
