Preparation

SAS uses serial connections, with a direct connection between the host server and each of the 
storage devices. This eliminates the need to configure SCSI buses and assign SCSI IDs, as was 
required for parallel SCSI devices. 

The companion Ark Tape server purchased from Editshare will be configured with a compatible 
SAS Host Bus Adapter (HBA). Refer to the 

Ark Setup and User Guide

 for more information. 

Supported speeds by drive generation are shown in the following table: 

LTO Generation

Supported Speeds

LTO-5

1.5 Gb/s, 3Gb/s, 6Gb/s

LTO-6

1.5 Gb/s, 3Gb/s, 6Gb/s

LTO-7

1.5 Gb/s, 3Gb/s, 6Gb/s

LTO-8

1.5 Gb/s, 3Gb/s, 6Gb/s 

A SAS tape drive is identified by a unique identifier called a World Wide Name (WWN) or World 
Wide Identifier (WWID). The library assigns the WWID to the drive bay. When a tape drive is 
replaced, the WWID is re-assigned to the new tape drive. 

The operating system tracks the WWID for the tape drive on each HBA channel. Each of the drive 
connectors on the fan-out cable is associated with an HBA channel. Once a tape drive has been 
plugged in, it should remain on the same channel to retain the association between the HBA 
channel and WWID. 

Fibre Channel Requirements 

For best performance, use the appropriate HBA for your tape drive. A lower throughput 
HBA might result in performance degradation when backing up highly compressible data 
to a higher throughput tape drive. 

In a SAN installation, all switches between the host and the library must be of the 
appropriate type. A lower throughput switch in the path may result in performance 
degradation. Configure zoning so only the backup servers may access the library. 

The Fibre Channel tape drive can be connected directly to the server with a host bus adapter (HBA). 

The installation requires one Fibre Channel cable for each tape drive. The tape drives all utilize an 
LC-style connector. Some drives will have two FC ports, but only one cable connection is needed 
per drive. The cable can be connected to either drive FC port. 

The companion Ark Tape server purchased from Editshare will be configured with a compatible FC 
Host Bus Adapter (HBA). Refer to the 

Ark Setup and User Guide

 for more information. 

Supported speeds by drive generation are listed in the following table:
