Please check your HP ProLiant server documentation to ascertain the correct method of mounting, and
to check whether mounting hardware is provided with the server.
Mounting rails
Some HP ProLiant servers, such as ML570, require mounting rails. These may be metal or plastic rails
attached to the server’s drive bay fi ller panel.
Use a regular Phillips screwdriver to attach the appropriate rails. Use the 6 mm M3 screws provided with
the tape drive, in the screw pack labeled ’General Mounting Screws’, as shown in Figure 5 on page 24.
If you cannot tighten the screws, use the washers provided in the pack.

CAUTION:
Ensure you do use the 6 mm M3 screws provided. The rails may be attached to the fi ller panel by screws
of a different thread/size type and these should not be used. If the screws are too long, they may
penetrate the mechanism and void the warranty.
Mounting screws
Other HP ProLiant server models, such as ML350 and ML370, only require the use of special locating
screws with no mounting rail.
Use a T8 Torx screwdriver to attach the appropriate screws. Locate both screws lightly in position before
tightening, as shown in Figure 6 on page 25.
• HP ProLiant ML350: Use the metal shims and screw pack labeled ‘ProLiant 350’. These have a
thicker head than the general mounting screws.
• HP ProLiant ML370: Use the metal shims and screw pack labeled ‘ProLiant 370’. These have a
thick offset piece and a thicker head than the general mounting screws.
