Step

4.

Mounting

the

drive

Mount

the

tape

drive;

then

attach

the

SCSI and

power

cables

to

it.

If

there

is

insufficient

working

space

to

attach

the

connectors

after

mounting

the

drive,

attach the

cables

first (see

“Step

5. Attaching

cables”).

To

mount

the

drive:

1.

Locate

an

available

5.25-inch

bay

or

space

in

your

computer

to

mount

the

tape

drive.

Remove

the

cover

plate

from

the

bay

selected.

Place

the

drive

horizontally

or

vertically.

2.

Align

the

drive-bay screw holes

with

the

threaded

holes

in

the

drive

housing.

When

you

mount

the

tape

drive,

follow

these

guidelines:

Ÿ

Ensure

that

no

objects

such

as

screw

heads,

cables,

or

adjacent

devices

are

pressing

against

the

frame.

Ÿ

Ensure

that

nothing

blocks

the

ventilation

slots

on

the

bottom

and

rear

of the

tape

drive.

3.

Insert

a

screw

through

each

of the drive-bay

holes

into

the

threaded

holes

in

the

drive

and

tighten

the

screws

with

a

screwdriver.

Use

only

the

screws

that

come

with

the

tape drive.

Other

screws

might

be

too

long

and

cause

electrical

shorts.
