Great!

In my situation, this won't be a problem, as these drives are marked as 
"READ ONLY" in the device configuration. I only use this storage node for 
restores from old tapes (we now use LTO drives, as backup drives)

Since I don't/can't backup to these drives, they also don't use a storage 
node license. :-)
