Photo of the Week, December 4, 2017
This photo is an interior view of the StorageTek PowderHorn 9310 Tape Silo Library in use from the mid-1990s until around 2006 to store data from the experimental halls. It was replaced with an IBM tape that uses higher capactity, industry standard LTO tapes instead of the proprietary StorageTek tapes.
This photo is featured on one of the second floor atrium displays. Trivia time: Catch a glimpse of this tape library is the first ten seconds of the trailer for the 1996 action movie "Eraser" here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qK4cM1ez0a4
