For context:
- We have an existing leased Windows-based storage array, which has a SAS card in it connected to our Quantum i3 tape library. That lease has ended, and we need to return that array.
- I am pricing out the above-mentioned NAS to serve as our Veeam backup target for VM-level backups, but I thought it would be absolutely incredible if I could take that card (or different card if it's not compatible) and put it in the NAS to connect to the tape library.
- We would still be using Veeam to back up to tape, so even if connection is possible, I'm not sure if/how the library could be addressed within Veeam
