@darkling @NanoRaptor 100 EUR per tape versus 35 EUR? /gen

IIRC LTO-5 was circa 100 EUR a tape back in 2012.

@devxvda @NanoRaptor I was thinking more of the cost of the drives. I got my LTO-5 for about £800 on eBay, I think. That was a few years ago. The later generations ramp up in price very quickly.

@devxvda @darkling @NanoRaptor I used LTO-1 at 200 USD per tape back in 2004-2005 timeframe.
