Step 3. Mount the tape drive into the server
To mount the LTO-2 into a server:
__ 1. Remove the cover of your server (refer to the instructions in the server’s
documentation).
__ 2. Place the drive into the server so that its tape load compartment faces the
front of the server.
__ 3. Use the supplied mounting screws to mount drive into server. Some server
installations require use of mounting rails. For these applications, use the
mounting screws to attach rails to the side of the LTO-2 drive and then slide
the drive into the server.
Attention:
When inserted into the LTO-2, the length of the mounting screws must
not exceed 3.5 mm (0.14 in.) inside the chassis. If the length exceeds this
measurement, the tape drive may become damaged.
