I don't see why it would not work. From experience the one
thing lacking will be that the LTO2 drive on the module will
not have a tape drive door.... so dust inhalation will be an issue.
I have an LTO2 drive like this and have been trying to find a new
faceplate with the tape 'door'..... my drive is made by IBM as I
recall.
