I've worked with 2 different solutions. 1) Using a Wrightline cabinet,
you can obtain/purchase drawers/trays that roll out. A given drawer is
only a few inches high and holds 100 - 200 tapes (it's been a while so I
don't remember the exact quantity); 2) another solution that I'm using
now involves a 2-hour rate fire safe which also has drawers/trays that
roll out.

In all my looking, no one expressly had storage for DAT media of any
significant quantity. I just improvised. Another idea would be to look at
Architectual drawers, just make sure the drawer is tall enough for the
tape.

Good luck
