To rackmount the autoloader, you need to select an open 2U computer

Understanding Autoloader Features
General Features
2
The autoloader is compatible with most operating systems and
environments that support the SCSI, Fibre Channel, or SAS (Serial
Attached SCSI) interface, but requires either direct support from the
operating system or a compatible backup application to take full
advantage of its many features.
Caution:
Whenever you power cycle the autoloader, allow 10
seconds before turning the power back on. The power
supply requires at least two to three seconds for the
capacitors to discharge. This ensures a complete system
reset on power down and may avoid system errors.
