Does anyone have recommendations for MAXIMUM BLOCK SIZE for a LTO-7 tape
drive (HP). We are currently using 2M on the LTO-5 with success (and it
seemed to improve the speed). I didn't know if there was a better
setting for the LTO-7 (e.g., 4M) that should be used. Any suggestions?

the existing pools to use LTO-7 (since it can still read LTO-5
tapes). Can I just change the directive in the pool to use our new
LTO-7 tape drive OR will this mess up the existing LTO-5 tapes in the
pool. I was wanting to use the existing pools, but I could create
new ones if necessary. Thanks.
It's just a tag, it has no meaning, you could use "Bilbo-Baggins" and
as long as you are consistent it doesn't matter what the contents of
the "Storage" directive is.

P.S. It's considered impolite to change the Subject of an existing
thread on a mailing list to start a new discussion, it buggers up MUAs
that use the "Reference:" header to group things.
