Securities and Exchange Commission                                             
Judiciary Plaza

Ladies and Gentlemen:                                                          
                                                                               
I have acted as counsel to Storage Technology Corporation, a Delaware 
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and filing of 
the amendment to Registration Statement on Form S-8, Registration No. 33-51764,
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, relating to an additional 180,000 
shares (the "Shares") of the Company's common stock, $.10 par value per share, 
including rights to purchase Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock of 
the Company, reserved for issuance under the Company's Amended and Restated 
Stock Option Plan for Nonemployee Directors.  Such Registration Statement is 
referred to herein as the "Registration Statement."                            
                                                                               
I have examined and relied upon originals or copies of such corporate records 
of the Company, communications or certifications of public officials, 
certificates of officers, directors and representatives of the Company and 
other documents as I have deemed relevant and necessary for the purpose of
rendering this opinion.  In making such examination, I have assumed the 
genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents tendered to me
as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents 
submitted to me as copies.                                                     
                                                                               
On the basis of the foregoing examination and assumptions, and in reliance 
thereon, it is my opinion that, when sold in the manner contemplated by the 
Registration Statement, the Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid 
and nonassessable.                                                             
                                                                               
I hereby consent to the filing of this letter as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and to the reference made to me and the use of my name in the 
Registration Statement and the Prospectus which is a part thereof, and all 
amendments to the Registration Statement.  This opinion may not be quoted 
without my prior written consent.                                              
                                                                               
Very truly yours,
