Installing Drives in the External Bays 9-7
5. Check all cable connections that may have been
loosened during this procedure. Arrange cables
so they will not catch on the computer cover or
block the airflow of the fans or cooling vents.
6. If a front-panel insert on the computer cover
blocks the bay in which you installed the drive,
remove the insert.
See “Removing and Replacing Front-Panel Inserts”
earlier in this chapter.
7. Replace the front bezel and computer covers.
8. Reconnect the computer and peripherals to their
power sources, and turn them on.
9. Test the SCSI devices.
To test a SCSI tape drive, refer to the documentation
for the tape drive software to perform a tape drive
backup and verification test.
Installing an Internal Tape Drive That
Uses a Controller Card
Tape drives that require their own separate controller
cards are shipped with the controller card and an inter-
face cable. Install the drive in the third or bottom bay of
the upper drive cage by performing the following steps:
1. Configure the controller card if necessary.
Refer to the documentation accompanying the tape
drive and the card. If the card incorporates jumpers
or switches that must be set to work with the system,
verify or change the settings as necessary.
2. Remove the computer covers and front bezel.
See “Removing the Computer Covers” and “Remov-
ing the Front Bezel” in Chapter 7.
3. Attach the drive rails to the drive, if necessary
(see Figure 9-6).
4. Slide the new drive into its bay until it snaps
securely into place.
If necessary, you can adjust drive alignment by
repositioning one or both rails.
5. Install the controller card in an expansion slot.
See “Installing an Expansion Card” in Chapter 8.
6. Connect a DC power cable to the tape drive.
If other installed drives are in the way, disengage
them by pressing in on the plastic drive rails at the
front of the bay, and slide them slightly toward the
front of the chassis.
Refer to “DC Power Cables” earlier in this chapter to
determine which DC power cable connector to use.
Plug the DC power cable connector into the 4-pin
power input connector on the back of the drive.
7. Attach the interface cable that came with the
drive kit to the connector on the back of the drive.
8. Route the other end of the interface cable through
a cutout in the center wall of the chassis to the
controller card, and connect the interface cable to
the controller connector on the card.
Refer to the controller card’s documentation to iden-
tify the controller connector on the card.
9. If you moved other drives in step 5, snap them
back into place.
10. Check all cable connections that may have been
loosened during this procedure. Arrange cables
so they will not catch on the computer cover or
block the airflow of the fans or cooling vents.
11. If a front-panel insert on the computer cover
blocks the bay in which you installed the drive,
remove the insert.
See “Removing and Replacing Front-Panel Inserts”
earlier in this chapter.
12. Replace the computer bezel and covers.
13. Reconnect the computer and peripherals to their
power sources, and turn them on.
CAUTION: See “Protecting Against Electro-
static Discharge” in the safety instructions at
the front of this guide.
