Ah. Careful with this statement. It does fit, however, you need a frame conversion, library manager upgrade, and 3592's and 3590's can't coexist in the same frame. We may not *convert*, but we may move our 3590's out of our L unit, upgrade it, and move in a couple of these babies. They do look nice, but I still hate the thought of the dataloss, if one cart gets damaged or fails. ooooh. bob > > - Allen S. Rout
