1 Unpack and prepare the drive for installation. For instructions, see the documentation that accompanied the drive. If you are installing a SAS tape drive, you must have an integrated SAS storage controller card installed. See "Installing an Expansion Card" on page 115. If you are installing a SCSI tape drive, you must have a SCSI controller card installed. See "Installing an Expansion Card" on page 115. You must configure the tape drive according to the documentation that came with the tape drive, keeping in mind the following guidelines. NOTE: Each device attached to a SCSI host adapter must have a unique SCSI ID number (narrow SCSI devices use IDs 0 to 7; wide SCSI devices use IDs from 0 to 15). Set the drive's SCSI ID to avoid conflicts with other devices on the SCSI bus. For the default SCSI ID setting, see the documentation provided with the drive. NOTE: There is no requirement that SCSI ID numbers be assigned sequentially or that devices be attached to the cable in order by ID number. NOTE: SCSI logic requires that the two devices at opposite ends of a SCSI chain be terminated and that all devices in between be unterminated. Enable the tape drive's termination if it is the last device in a chain of devices (or sole device) connected to the SCSI controller. 2 Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from its electrical outlet. 3 Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 85. 4 Remove the front bezel. See "Removing the Front Bezel" on page 81. 5 If you are installing a drive into an empty bay: a Remove the EMI filler panel. See "Removing an EMI Filler Panel" on page 83. b Remove the front bezel insert. See "Removing the Front Bezel Insert" on page 82. If you are installing a new drive into a bay that has an optical or a tape drive, see "Removing an Optical or a Tape Drive" on page 99. Installing System Components 101

Installing System Components

1
Unpack and prepare the drive for installation. For instructions, see the
documentation that accompanied the drive.
If you are installing a SAS tape drive, you must have an integrated
SAS storage controller card installed. See "Installing an Expansion Card"
on page 115.
If you are installing a SCSI tape drive, you must have a SCSI controller
card installed. See "Installing an Expansion Card" on page 115.
You must configure the tape drive according to the documentation that
came with the tape drive, keeping in mind the following guidelines.
NOTE:
Each device attached to a SCSI host adapter must have a unique
SCSI ID number (narrow SCSI devices use IDs 0 to 7; wide SCSI devices
use IDs from 0 to 15). Set the drive's SCSI ID to avoid conflicts with other
devices on the SCSI bus. For the default SCSI ID setting, see the
documentation provided with the drive.
NOTE:
There is no requirement that SCSI ID numbers be assigned
sequentially or that devices be attached to the cable in order by ID number.
NOTE:
SCSI logic requires that the two devices at opposite ends of
a SCSI chain be terminated and that all devices in between be unterminated.
Enable the tape drive's termination if it is the last device in a chain of devices
(or sole device) connected to the SCSI controller.
2
Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect
the system from its electrical outlet.
3
Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 85.
4
Remove the front bezel. See "Removing the Front Bezel" on page 81.
5
If you are installing a drive into an empty bay:
a
Remove the EMI filler panel. See "Removing an EMI Filler Panel" on
page 83.
b
Remove the front bezel insert. See "Removing the Front Bezel Insert"
on page 82.
If you are installing a new drive into a bay that has an optical or
a tape drive, see "Removing an Optical or a Tape Drive" on page 99.
