[Networker] Using LTO3 in LTO4 drives?
2010-04-29 22:32:51
Is it a problem to recycle older LTO-3 media in LTO-4 drives and label
these into the same tape pool? This is in an all LTO-4 drive tape library.
I've had no issues reading from LTO3 tapes in the LTO4 drives, and they
are supposed to be backward write compatible (haven't tried that yet),
but will NW span mixed tapes properly, assuming all drives are LTO4?
