Hello Dave, try www.corpsys.com
or 408-743-8720
They sell a Seagate(Arhive???) Python MN-28849 4mm autoloader
for $279 Internal (+$100 for external case & PS) comes
with a 4 tape mag. & $89 for a 12 tape mag.
I am not affiliated with corporate systems center .
I have purchased one of these & have been resonably
happy with its performance .
