I have a library that uses LTO-1 drives.  We are contemplating getting a new
library (bigger) with LTO-2 drives.
I know there are some folks with experience with both kinds of drives out
there :)

Is the media different between LTO-1 and LTO-2?

Some follow on questions, if the media is different:

Can LTO-2 use the same media as LTO-1?  Would it be used at a lower density?

Can LTO-1 use the same media as LTO-2?

TIA ... Jack
