Hello Ralph,

you are talking about data migration. I do not know much about IBM Libraries. You talking about MO Library, do you mean Magneto Optical? Or is it a tape technolgy?
The ESL Library is available with LTO 2 drives, which are able to read /write LTO 1 and 2 tapes. The ESL library is also available with SDLT drives.

If you really talk about Magneto Optical, you might want to use a professional Data Migration or Conversion Service. I will attach an information about this.
Regards, Ralf.
