Q. If a customer
is expecting to grow?would I sell them a
SL48 or a SL500?
A. If a customer
is expecting growth, but is unable to predict
how
quickly and how much it will grow in the
next few years, the SL500 is
a better option because it offers greater
scalability (scaling from
30-575 slots).
Q. How do
customers receive the Upgrade Advantage
Program trade-in allowance?
A. Customers
will receive their trade-in allowance as
a discounted
percentage off the list price of their new

Q. How does
the trade-in work for my old tape library?
A. When ordering
the new SL24 Tape Autoloader or SL48 Tape
Library,
customers will need to order a $0 amount
CU-CONSOL-RMA part number.
This part number is a return kit that will
arrive with the new SL24
Tape Autoloader or SL48 Tape Library system.
The return kit will have
all the instructions for returning the old
tape system.
