DAT tape drives can be connected to servers running under Windows®,
Linux and other major operating systems. Please visit the support pages at
http://www.tandbergdata.com for the most recent information about the
operating system versions that are supported.
How do I connect the drive to my server?
For optimum performance the drive should be connected to a USB 2.0 port
and it should be the only device on the USB bus. Although the tape drive
will function on USB 1.1, performance will be severely degraded. See also
“
Verifying USB installation for optimum performance ” on page 38.
What are the mounting requirements for an internal tape drive?
You need one industry-standard, 5¼-inch, half-height bay in which to install
the Tandberg Data DAT tape drive. For many servers, no mounting tray or
rails are required. Devices simply slide into the server's chassis and are
fixed with screws. Other servers have built-in trays or rails.
Some servers use non-standard mounting rails and do not include spares.
If this is the case with your system, you will have to order these accessories
from the server manufacturer before you can install the tape drive.
