Figure 19 Connecting One
Drive on One SCSI Bus
Note:
To prevent possible data errors, when there is only one drive on a SCSI bus, the
tape drive should be connected to the SCSI connector closest to the terminator.
Caution:
To avoid damaging the equipment due to electrostatic discharge, be sure to
practice ESD procedures when handling the tape drive.
