Sure, like the DLT IV tapes in the L/9's on my Suns.

DLT III tapes and DLT IV tapes can be used in drives that are defined as
dlt, dlt2, or dlt3. (The important thing is that "dlt" regardless of the
number that follows.) You may wish to define certain drives within a robot
as dlt and others as dlt2 so that they don't try to both write to the same
tapes.
Or at least, that's what they taught me in class ten days ago. :7)
