Connect the cables to the back of the tape drive. 11. Thread the cables through the tape drive bay toward the server. 12. Push the tape drive assembly into the tape drive bay, gently pulling the cables out the back of the tape drive as you do so, until the tape drive assembly stops. 13. Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position. 14. Remove the backing from the hook-and-loop fastener on the SCSI terminator. Attach the terminator to the inside top of the tape drive bay making sure that it does not block any cables or connectors in the bay. Drive cage SCSI terminator 15. Slide the drive cage assembly into the front of the server, gently pulling the cables into the server until it clicks into place. Make sure the release latches hold the backplane securely in place. 16. Connect the backplane cables, that you disconnected previously, to the drive backplane. 17. Connect the tape drive signal cable connector and power cable connector to the system board (See "System-board internal cable connectors" on page 19 for the location of the connectors). 18. Route the SCSI signal cable under the SAS cable, through the slot in the side of the air baffle and connect it to the SCSI adapter. The following illustration shows the routing of the SCSI tape drive signal cable. Important: Make sure to route the cables so that you do not obstruct access to the fan connectors. Chapter 2.
