Figure 4. Connecting the SCSI Bus Cable to the 7207-122 Tape Drive. The view is from
the side.
5. Connect the other end of the SCSI bus cable as follows:
If the 7207-122 Tape Drive is the only device attached to the system,
connect the cable to the RS/6000 (see Figure 5 on page 9).
If the 7207-122 Tape Drive is part of a multiple-device configuration,

each device on either side of the 7207-122 Tape Drive.
