We plan to move from DDS to DLT. On HP's web you can read a lot about the
new DLT 30e and DLT 40e.
I just talked to our CE at HP - and he says that these DLT stations are not
supported on HP 3000 (but apparently with almost anything else than HP
3000!). Only the DLT4000 is supported, currently.

1) Does anybody know whether this is true or not?

2) It is possible, that the DLTs will run unsupported under MPE anyway?

3) We will be using BACKUP/3000 with the DLT-station - any experiences with
that constellation, anybody?
(I'm thinking on how much you can expect to hold on one tape - using both
the built-in hardware compression
plus ORBiTs software ditto).

TIA!
