The server does not recognize the drive If the server does not recognize the drive, complete the following steps: 1. Make sure that the USB cable and power cable are correctly connected to the drive. 2. Make sure that the correct device driver is installed. 3. If the server still does not recognize the tape drive, contact IBM Support. The backup program does not recognize the drive If the backup application program does not recognize the drive, use another application (such as Microsoft Windows Device Manager, for example) to determine whether the drive is recognized. If the other application recognizes the drive, check the documentation that came with the backup program to determine whether the program requires a particular device driver. If the other application does not recognize the drive, the drive might not be correctly installed or configured. Check the drive installation and configuration. Replacing the tape drive The tape drive is a Tier 1 customer replaceable unit (CRU). Replacement of Tier 1 CRUs is your responsibility. If IBM installs a Tier 1 CRU at your request, you will be charged for the installation. For more information about the terms of the warranty and getting service and assistance, see Appendix C, "IBM Statement of Limited Warranty Z125-4753-09 08/2006," on page 23. If you are instructed to return a component, follow all packaging instructions, and use any packaging materials for shipping that are supplied to you. Table 2 lists the replaceable components.
