Sweet! Love the clearance when they are moving the replacement quadrupole... Guy looks nervous as he looks in the mirror...

11 Cool shot!

12 I used to work for StorageTek and have seen some pretty HUGE tape vaults, but that is MASSIVE! I would love to see it in person.

Want to know something funny?

StorageTek made the 3494 for IBM...


BTW: I thought they already turned it back on and had broken a record...
