Yup,
that can be the way.. but they want the ocular proof that LTO3 drives can read and write the LTO2 media's.

for all, the library is STK L5500. Is it support for the partitioning?
getting more interesting here..

Martin.

I would personally config the drives as hcart2 - easiest way out. When you receive your LTO3 media, reconfig your drives as hcart3 and add your hcart3 media. Your hcart2 images can be restored using the LTO2 drives.
 
We have a customer doing that - LTO2 & LTO3 all configed as hcart2, all using hcart2 media. Backups written on the LTO3 drives using LTO2 media can be restored on any of the drives.
