Assuming that a tape library like a TS3200 has new enough firmware for a given generation of SAS drive, if I buy one without drives can I stuff any LTO drive into it that has the appropriate physical sled? So far as I can tell the licences for the TS3200 do things like path failover, encryption, or stuff like that. Do you additionally need to licence a drive that didn't come with the library to work with it?
