Will a Dell PowerVault work with a Dell Optiplex 780 SFF?
I would like to know if the Dell PowerVualt will work with the Dell Optiplex 780 SFF? Here's a couple of PowerVault models that I was considering:
Dell PowerVault LTO4-120 - 0X69MX
Dell PowerVault LTO-4 - 0XW272
If yes, how would I be able to do it? I just would like to know if it's feasible.

Hello Nx5869,
Yes you can connect an LTO4 tape drive to your Optiplex7800SFF. What you will need to do is to get a Low Profile 6gb SAS HBA card and connect it to your PCIe slot in your Optiplex. Then you can connect your external LTO4 drive to the HBA and install the drivers and you should be good to go.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
