Qualified SDLT Drives for MSL5026

I can't find any docs on the HP StorageWorks web pages that list the specific part numbers for qualfied drives that will work with a MSL5026. I am interested in the model numbers for SDLT2 drives. I currently have SDLT1 (i.e., 110/220 GB) drives and am curious if any of the Quantum SDLT2 (i.e. 160/320 GB) drives might work. Specifically, the 70-80014-01. :)

Thanks!
Rick

The upgrade SDLT2 tape drive for all MSL5000 is the 293475-B21

Visit this link to verify it and to see other options:

Tape & Compatability tools page:
http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/tapecompatibility.html

Then click on "Business class libraries drive upgrade matrix" under Tape Compatability.
If the flop doesn't fit... go allin!!!
