Installing a Second Tape Drive or Replacing a Tape Drive

LTO-3, LTO-4, LTO-5, LTO-6, LTO-7 and LTO-8

Figure 19  Connecting One 
Drive on One SCSI Bus

Note:

To prevent possible data errors, when there is only one drive on a SCSI bus, the 

tape drive should be connected to the SCSI connector closest to the terminator.

Caution:

To avoid damaging the equipment due to electrostatic discharge, be sure to 

practice ESD procedures when handling the tape drive.
