A tape cartridge may be used to transport the data to discussed computing facility from other places where such data are produced. It is not clear yet (27 Oct 1997) which tape drive type will be more suitable for that. Seemingly most useful to have the same cartridge type (and density) which is used in tape robot at CERN DESY, FNAL, or BNL.
For the pilot installation uniprocessor configuration is discussed. However it is easy to image how to upgrade it to two or four processor configuration.
