Installing
a
tape
drive
A tape drive is installed from the rear of the library. If the library does not already have a tape drive
installed, install it now. If the library already has one tape drive installed, an additional tape drive may
be added now or after installation of the library is complete.
Required
tool:
#2 Phillips screwdriver
To
install
tape
drives:
1.
The Q24 has one full‐height (2U) bay space for either 1 or 2 half‐height tape drives. Always
install the first tape drive in the bottom of the drive bay. If only one half height drive is to be
installed, a drive bay cover must be installed over the upper empty drive position.
2.
If present, loosen the screws and remove the lower drive bay cover to install one half‐height
tape drive; remove both drive bay covers to install two tape drives.
3.
Slightly pull out the tab of the product ID label so it does not interfere with the tape drive.
