In fact, there are a few links - another:

Media Libraries).

Briefly, yes, you can do it depending upon library type, media type and
media generation backward and forward compatibility.

Subject: [ADSM-L] different cartridge sizes in one library

Hi,
What happens if I mix different generations of LTO cartridges in a tape
library? Does it matter from TSM's point of view? Let say a library with
LTO4 drives but LTO4 and LTO3 cartridges in a mixture.

Thanks
