Important
You must update your Magnum 448 library to the current firmware (v. V1D181 or
higher) before you install your new drive. The firmware allows the library to
auto-configure the tape drive installation upon power up, eliminating the step of
manually configuring the library after tape drive installation.
If your library code is not updated to v. V1D181 or higher, you will need to contact
Tandberg Data technical support for manual configuration instructions.
