Hi Sachii,
Looks like all the drives in your library are in use, you can release any one drive for your restore using the command Revaroo suggested "nbrbutil"...the syntax is as below
nbrubtil -releasedrive <drive name>
eg : nbrubtil -releasedrive IBM.ULTRIUM-TD4.000 (this command releases your drive 0)
you might have release the MDS allocation of the drive as well, you can get the allocation key by running the command "nbrbutil -dump". If you find the allocation key just for the drive which you want to use for the restore (as in the above example drive 0) release the MDS allocation by using the below command..
nbrbutil -releaseMDS <allocation key>
Let us know how if that works for you.

Has this ever worked before? Have you confirmed if there are actual backups writing to these drives?
If there are no backups running (including restores and duplications) you could try:
nbrbutil -resetAll - please note this will remove all device and media allocations so any jobs running will fail immediately, so ensure NO jobs are running.
