Without going into extensive detail, slavery throughout the world has always existed in some way or form.The trans-saharan slave trade was nowhere near as brutal as the transatlantic. Many slaves of the trans-saharan slave trade ranged from violent offenders(rapist) to captured warriors from other tribes. The slaves were still treated with some sort of dignity and were able to be reintegrated back into society, as productive member after a few years(5-10). Whereas in the trans atlantic, slaves were seen as less than human....

I guess where you lost me was how you worded it "the trans-saharian slave trade wasn't necessarily a bad thing" I assume what you mean now is it wasn't AS BAD as the transatlantic slave trade. Which I guess is possible, however I don't know where you get you facts from (not saying there wrong) but it sounds kind of like someone retelling history to make it sound better than what it was. In general I believe most people who owned slaves treated them likes property. Were their cases where it wasn't as bad sure but the majority of the time I doubt it was much different from Rome, Middle East, America, or wherever.
