Non-HD cartridge storage slots in LTO Ultrium frames are black. Non-HD cartridge storage
slots in 3592 frames may be gray or black. In 3592 frames with black slots, a 3592 label
above the drives or slots indicates that the slots are for 3592 media. HD slots are all black,
however the location of the cartridge retention latch distinguishes the two storage slots. The
cartridge retention latch on LTO Ultrium HD slots is on the left; the cartridge retention latch
on 3592 HD slots is on the right.

The base frames of the TS3500 Tape Library (Models L22, L23, L32, L52, and L53) each
contain one inaccessible cartridge storage slot for a diagnostic cartridge at physical address
F01,C01,R01. Additionally, the first expansion frame of a different media type (LTO or
3592) in a mixed media library contains one inaccessible cartridge slot for a diagnostic
cartridge at physical address F
xx
,C01,R01 (where
xx
equals the first expansion frame for
the second type of media). There are no inaccessible slots in all other expansion frames.
If you purchase a second accessor, the accompanying two service bays each contain a
diagnostic cartridge.
Inaccessible cartridge storage slots do not have SCSI element addresses.
