2-4 System Description
  6-00054-02 Rev A
Cartridge storage quantity varies by the number of modules 
and tape drives in the modules. Table 2-2 lists the quantity of 
media contained by the storage cells for the CM and EMs 
configured for the different media types.
When mixing high-profile drive technology with DLT/SDLT, 
the CM must be configured for high-profile drive technology, 
while DLT/SDLT consumes separate EMs.
