Sorry for my simplistic questions but if I'm understanding this you have a Tape Robot from Storage DNA and Cache-A to control it? Does this mean you are just using Cache-A software to drive the Tape Robot? Or do you have a whole Cache-A setup that is also capable of controlling the Tape Robot from Storage DNA? And most importantly does your Tape Robot have a name? If not maybe it's time for another poll to name your Robot. ;-)

Are you using Storage DNA to access a Cache-A LTO-5 drive? Just trying to get the broad stokes of how your setup works with the two products.
