You still can define a SCSI library over 9840 drives and manual library
over DLT drives. You then will be able to perform current backups on new
drives and slowly to migrate data from old cartridges. The drawback is that
you (or the operators) will be the tape robot ;-)

Subject:        Re: Mixed drives in STK library

Hi

My STK 9740 Scsi libraries have both DLT7000 and T9840B drives without
ACSLS

9840B drives are FC native
DLT7 drives and LB0 are driven by a SCSI cable...
