A tape drive is hot pluggable. It is not mandatory to power

Adhere strictly to the following steps to remove a tape drive:
1. Unload the tape cartridge from the tape drive (if present) using:
OCP, see Section 3.1.7
RMU, see Section 3.2.8.1
2. Remove all affected tape drive cables on the rear panel.
3. Loosen the blue thumbscrews located on the rear of the tape drive with your fingers.
4. Slightly pull out and push down the tab containing the product ID label so it does not interfere
with the tape drive as shown below.
5. Pull the tape drive by the handle straight out of the library.
