Replacing tape drives or drive blanks

These instructions describe how to replace a drive blank or a tape drive
that is already installed in a drive carrier.

Important

You must purchase the tape drive

pre-installed in the carrier.

Using drive blanks

If you are using fewer than four tape drives, you must install a drive
blank in the unused drive carrier slots. You cannot operate the library
with empty drive carrier slots.
