Hi folks...
Someone there can help me with that doubt..
Is LTO-4 backward compatability with LTO-2 and LTO-1 ?
I'm buying a LTO-4 TS3100 Library, but at this time i'm not needing
all tape capacity. So, I was thinking to use it with my old LTO-2
tapes for read/write ... Is it possible ?
Thanks
A LTO-4 drive can read and write LTO-4 and LTO-3 tapes. In that LTO-4
drive a LTO-2 tape is read only. You can't use a LTO-1 tape in a LTO-4
drive.

I am thinking of buying the same library, I currently have LTO-2
library that I want to replace. My reseller told me that the LTO
drives can read/write previous generation tapes and can only read 2
generations back. So LTO-4 can read/write LTO-3 tapes but can only read
LTO-2 tapes. It cannot
