You may have found your answer; however, there is a TSM Technote on
libraries using mixed media.

The Technote reference number is 1155662

Subject: [ADSM-L] Mixing drive types in logical library 3584

Hi all,

I have been told by IBM that fibre LTO2 drives are no longer available.
We
wish to expand the number of drives in our 3584 library from 2 to 5. The
current 2 drives are fibre LTO2 drives, would it pose a problem by
adding
an additional 3 LTO3 drives to that logical library? Is it possible
under
Windows??  I realize I will need to continue to use LTO2 media, as the
existing LTO2 drives would not be compatable with LTO3 media. Our TSM
server is running on Windows 2003. 

Any input would be appreciated.

Regards,

Chris
