Okay, okay... It seems I didn't search to carefully. Just half a day
looking more closely showed me two shops which offered the HP C1554C.
It's a DDS-3 drive with 12 GB real capacity (24 GB compressed). One
shop wanted 761 EUR, the other approx. 680 EUR. And that's the price
for a new drive. 

It seems, that I have finally found my backup solution. :-)

Bye,
Björn
