allowed is 3200 GB.
Max Size:

Empty slots
Empty slots are slots that contain no cartridges; all the fields are empty.
Tape drive row: A library consists of two devices; a tape drive and changer device. This
location refers to the tape drive element of the library. It is normally only populated when the
backup application on the host is writing to or reading from the library.
Mail slot row: This location refers to the slot that is used for importing and exporting data to
a physically attached tape drive. It is not used with HP StoreOnce products.
Numbered slot row: This slot is empty after a
Delete

has moved data to the mail slot for export.
Once a numbered slot is empty, the
Create
button may be used to create a new, blank cartridge.

Click on the
Create
button. There is a new right-hand column,
Add Cartridge
. Slots that are empty
have a checkbox in this column.
You can select individual slots by clicking in the appropriate checkboxes. When you have selected
the slots where cartridges should be added, click
Create
.
Alternatively, click
Create all
to create a blank cartridge of the size/emulation type selected when
the library was first configured in all empty slots.
