Nick, the catch here is that  I already have media in Generation 3
format..
After setting the Gen 3 drives to write in Gen 2 density, they are also
restricted to reading at Gen2.  I would still have to remediate the Gen3
media.

Hi George,
 I've had mixed drives in a library from before. What I've had to do
set the devc format to the lesser drive format. I know this does not
utilize the features of the new drives. But administratively when you
no choice, it is much easier than splitting the library.

Best of Luck,
