Media Subsystem
CD-ROM, DVD-RAM, or Tape Drive
Attention: DVD-RAM and 4-mm tape drives can be located in the rear of the media subsystem only if
the room is maintained at a nominal room temperature of 24°C (75.2°F).
Attention: Do not open the drive; no user adjustments or serviceable parts are inside.
CAUTION:
All IBM laser modules are designed so that there is never any human access to laser radiation
above a class 1 level during normal operation, user maintenance, or prescribed service conditions.
Data processing environments can contain equipment transmitting on system links with laser
modules that operate at greater than class 1 power levels. For this reason, never look into the end
of an optical fiber cable or open receptacle. Only trained service personnel should perform the
inspection or repair of optical fiber cable assemblies and receptacles.
