Iomega's REV Loader 280: The Ultimate Backup Master? | Tom's Hardware

A good idea but with too little capacity for way too much money. Just getting a USB hard drive makes more sense.

Iomega's REV Loader 280: The Ultimate Backup Master? | Tom's Hardware

The REV Loader 280 is compact and lightweight (1.8 kg) compared to the footprint of tape autoloaders, and it provides a welcome freeing of space in the server room. The physical dimensions of the unit are 7" x 5" x 11", which are smaller than most printers, and the unit fairly unobtrusive. As tested, the REV loader has space for eight REV disks at 35 GB each (up to 70 GB compressed at a 2:1 compression ratio), leading to a total net unit capacity of 280 GB uncompressed.
