User recommendations

To avoid over-allocation of disk space and the possibility of running out of disk space for non-user data:
• Only configure the libraries that you need
• Only configure the number of cartridges that you are likely to need
You can add cartridges at a later date to expand the system and remove individual blank cartridges
from a library without deleting the whole library, but cannot remove cartridges that have been written to.
See "Cartridges
