Hi Is there anyone using LTO2 drives with LTO1 tapes? How does the transferrate changes? What i know is: LTO2 drives with LTO2 tapes provides 30MB/s maximum and 15MB/s minimum. LTO1 drives with LTO1 tapes provides 15MB/s maximum and 8MB/s minimum. but how does LTO2 drives with LTO1 tapes work?? I have heard that the maximum speed for this case also would be 15MB/s. But what is the difference? Is the rotation of the drive slower? Does anyone know, if there are compatability problems combining those two technologies?
Sorry for this non-TSM-question, but there is no LTO forum and experiences with such combinations are very rare. I am thankful for every answer. Best regards Patrick
