MSL4048 LTO4 FH to LTO5 HH upgrade
Hello
We've purchased 2 x LTO5 half height upgrade modules for our MSL4048 tape library. We currently have LTO4 full height drives and the upgrade kits don't come with blanking panels.
Is there a blanking panel part available? I can't see it on the part list.
Is it expected to use the full height drives when only using two in a 4048?
I guess I can install the new drive modules but leaving two holes either side of the drives doesn't seem ideal to me.

Re: MSL4048 LTO4 FH to LTO5 HH upgrade
What is "blanking panel"?
The Library will not operate with a full-height tape drive installed in the second and third half-height drive bays. Install a full-height tape drive either in the bottom two half-height drive bays or the top two half-height drive bays.
May this information will help you but I would suggest to let us know about your query with more detail so that we can help you.
Do you want to replace LTO4 drives with LTO5?
Do you want to use both LTO4 and LTO5?
I work for HPE

I do not want to use full height drives at all, I have two new half height drives.
